mkps and chps can create > 64GB paging spaces

The swap man page says paging devices can be a maximum of 64GB. Yet mkps and chps can create a device of any size. The customer in this referenced pmr changed his paging device from 24GB to 150GB and it did not swap on when he rebooted. He deleted hd6, recreated it, and again extended it to 150GB.

chps should not allow a swap device to grow to more that 64GB. I suspect mkps allows for the creation of a large swap device but it wouldn't swapon.
