The test runs:
xfs_io -c 'pwrite 9223373136366403583 512' file

where 9223373136366403583 is bigger than LLONG_MAX (9223372036854775807), so

# LC_ALL=C xfs_io -c 'pwrite 9223373136366403583 512' ./x
(MYDEBUG)strerror(34): Numerical result out of range
non-numeric offset argument -- 9223373136366403583


What would be best approach to fix this - some cvtunum for unsigned long long?
