Ah, it's broken w.r.t. ioctls it doesn't know.  Rather than returning
an error, it will return random data :/

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62038
"qlogic drivers don't fail on unimplemented IOCTLs"

For now, xfsprogs 1.3 is probably ok, or it would be fairly easy
to modify your 2.0+ source to not use the BLKGETSIZE64 ioctl.
