Block size must be <= page size under Linux (see the XFS FAQ).
The page size is 4k for x86, 8k for ia64; the FAQ explains further.

Looking at system messages would probably have yielded something like this:
"filesystem with block size 16384 bytes. only pagesize (4096) or less will
currently work."
looking at kernel messages after a failed mount is always a good idea.
