>Description:
        raidctl seems to have a problem with the status output while 
constructing
        a raidset which is bigger then 2^31 sectors.

        This maybe a 'defect' in the passing structure from the kernel to
        raidctl(8).
>How-To-Repeat:
        Initialise a 1.4 TB raidset with:
                raidctl -iv raid0

        Wait 5.5 hours to reach the 99% mark and then notice that the
        timer stops but the task is still running.

        Stop the running command and start a
                raidctl -S raid0
        which now displays that it will take another 2 hours to finish
        that task.
