That was an unfortunate choice they made in having their second (int)
argument be an OID. A quick fix would be to have it use the single (bigint)
form of pg_try_advisory_lock. Something like this (untested):

diff --git a/bin/pg_repack.c b/bin/pg_repack.c
index af510ca..d638164 100644
- --- a/bin/pg_repack.c
+++ b/bin/pg_repack.c

- -   params[0] = REPACK_LOCK_PREFIX_STR;
- -   params[1] = relid;

+                    1, params);

    if (PQresultStatus(res) != PGRES_TUPLES_OK) {
        elog(ERROR, "%s",  PQerrorMessage(connection));




You also may want to raise this as an official issue here:
