Package: xfsprogs
Version: 2.8.11-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

XFS on 32bit Linux cannot mount filesystems >16T see:
http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2008-01/msg00124.html

xfs_grow will grow a filsystem larger than this which will function
untill the system is rebooted, at which point the filsystem becomes
inaccessable.  The resultant filesystem is readable on 64bit
architectures. 

xfs_growfs should at least warn of this condition, possibly it should
refuse to to grow filesystems over 16T on 32bit architectures.
