Subject:   Re: 14.3-RELEASE gpart show output (?.?T) vs. 14.4 and 15.0 and main: why do 14.4 and 15.0 and main have some single significant digit (?T) size figures?

It appears to be caused by 4f809ffec69c (gpart: add libxo support for "show" subcommand + man page updates) .

Prior to the change the size was formatted to human friendly format by `fmtsize(pp->lg_mediasize))` which in turn calls 
```
humanize_number(buf, sizeof(buf), rawsz, "", HN_AUTOSCALE,
            HN_B | HN_NOSPACE | HN_DECIMAL);
```,

now it is formatted with 
```
xo_emit("  ({h:size/%jd})\n", (intmax_t)pp->lg_mediasize);
```

It appears that libxo does not handle well with numbers those exceed 10^12, ( 1 Terabyte in this case ).
