My hope was premature. After long searching for "why there is not created any FS,"

I found that using mkfs on OS X on block devices probably wasn't ever enabled.

Some platform_ functions in libxfs/darwin.h used for block device work are empty

(so it just silently fails).

I edited the doc/INSTALL respectively and once I check and clean the patches,

I submit the updates in the compatibility patchset with block devices disabled.

Cheers,

Jan
