SGI, have you settled on a fix for this?  Latest released xfsprogs,
2.9.5 has this problem, and I've put it in rawhide; it's also in the F9
alpha spin.  Should I revert to 2.9.4 if you don't have plans to fix it
soon?

Nothing indicates to the user that their fs was misformatted, and there
will be a growing number fileystems missing a substantial portion of
their space out there....
