Ah, thank you. I would have been tearing my hair out wondering why those last 10 megs didn't work...

I rebuilt using ' --with-build-environment=POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFFBIG' explicitly in the debian rules, and that seems to have brought me back up to the full 128 gigs (I'll find out for sure once dd finishes paving out the COSS store, but for now `squid -k check` seems OK with it).

The working line is:

  cache_dir coss /mumble/cosstest 131061 block-size=8192

Thanks,

Jason
