Nobody has seen it until now.

1) Path should be absolute
2) Path *must* refer to a mount point; you look like you are
treating quotas as if they are more granular than they are.
Quotas are on a per FS basis *only*.
3) Setting a manifest "VALID_UID" doesn't make it valid, just
because you name it that. 8-).
4) "[EINVAL] Cmd or the command type is invalid."
5) Are you sure that quotas are enables on this FS already?
6) Are you sure blk is a struct dqblk?
7) Quota UID and GID ranges are more limited than FreeBSD
otherwise limits UID/GID ranges. Make sure that "VALID_UID"
isn't larger than 65535 or smaller than 0.
