Just in that one test? If I passed -1 that would probably also
generate EINVAL (haven't tested).

I'll have to check with the admins to see if this particular
filesystem is NFS3 or NFS4. I'm guessing 2**32 might be the max for
the former. The latter causes us all sorts of other heartburn though,
so even though it might be "more modern" in this regard, we don't use
it much.
