  Modified files:
    sbin/newfs           mkfs.c 
  Log:
  Removed "hack to prevent overflow of a 32bit block number".  Lite2 has a
  better hack in ffs_vfsops.c.  The hack here restricted the maximum file
  size to 2^39 bytes (512GB).  fs_bsize * 2^31 - 1 (16TB for the default
  blocksize of 8K) would have been better.  There is no good way to remove
  this limit on old BSD4.4 file systems.
