Sorry to clutter your inboxes some more, but
I thought people might find this amusing:

% csf bar 3000000000
% ls -l bar
-rw-r--r--   1 ddaniel  root     2147483647 Oct  2 11:56 bar
% fs lq .
Volume Name            Quota    Used    % Used   Partition 
user.d.ddaniel        200000-4025608    -2013%       -182%  

Let's give it a hard time:

% csf bar 2147483647
% rm bar
% fs lq .
Volume Name            Quota    Used    % Used   Partition 
user.d.ddaniel        200000-10317062    -5159%       -303%  

The files I'm going to store now... :-P The more I create and delete
these gems, the more my usage goes negative. Ack...

I think the problem occurs because 3000000000 is negative when you
look at it as a 32-bit signed int, and this is all as a result of
a negative lseek.

I guess this an informal bug report...I'll send this through the
formal channels as well.

(this is just too funny though)
