bug#33303: prob no. thirty-three thousand, three-hundred & three: hex id for file system is incorrect

[L A Walsh]

The reason I was confused about the output -- is that
it really is messed up. (3-3-3-0-3)

Nope.  It's just wrong: someone added a define, above, 
around #116:

#  define f_fsid dev

So instead of a fsid, it's the device number in hex
with an extra 8 0's tacked on the end.

Does your source control allow finding out when that was added
and by whom?

tnx...
