While most applications don't care one bit about st_ino returned from a stat()
call, the sad fact is that you'll get EOVERFLOW from stat32 if the inode number
is
too big to fit in 32 bits, even if you just wanted to get the file size.
Well, cifs-mounted filesystem already returns such large inode, and xscreensaver
already suffered from this issue.
