There was some concern at the time it was written as to whether we were
sure that we'd fixed all the places that treated block numbers as signed
rather than unsigned ints. I still misdoubt that this should be
considered a tested and guaranteed-to-work thing. Those who have done
any testing of, eg, VACUUM FULL on greater-than-16TB tables, please
raise your hands?
