It only applies to >2GB files.  If it's on a disk device, it works
fine.  (Or otherwise a lot more people would have been screaming.  :-)

Actually that might even warrant a serious severity, as nowadays you
can't do much with a <2GiB volume.

2011-10-31 Thread Samuel Thibault
Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.42~WIP-2011-10-16-1
Severity: important

Hello,

This was noticed on hurd-i386 first, but happens on i386 too:

$ dd < /dev/zero > blip bs=1M count=1 seek=8000
$ /sbin/mke2fs blip 
mke2fs 1.42-WIP (16-Oct-2011)
Could not stat blip --- Value too large for defined data type
$ nm -D /sbin/mke2fs | grep stat
 U __xstat

while it used to use xstat64, which provides LFS support. I guess some
build flag gets lost somewhere.
