Look at the diffs between 1.3 and 1.4 in etc/afpd/unix.c

Specifically, I am speaking about the addition of :

      if ( *bfree > 0x7fffffff / *bsize ) {
           *bfree = 0x7fffffff;
       } else {
           *bfree *= *bsize;
       }

In two places.  The comment in CVS is that this is "Wesley Craig's >
2GB patch".

I think this is the problem.  I have been meaning to conditionalize
this on a ./configure setting, but I have been swamped.

This change makes an x86 linux box always report 1.99 GB free even if
there is a lot less than that.
