The following fix seems to resolve the problem.  xfsrestore -t works, at
least.  (I'll try a real restore later.) I suspect the problem is in
endian-converting first_mark_offset, maybe when it contains the value
-1.  

Possibly this fix will make the dumps compatible with IRIX, but I
suspect few will mind.
