Haha, I was thinking about that too, and I tried this:
--
agc=`_scratch_xfs_get_sb_field agcount`
wipe_xfs_cmd="$XFS_DB_PROG -x"
for ((i=0; i<agc; i++)); do
	wipe_xfs_cmd="$wipe_xfs_cmd -c \"sb $i\" -c \"write -c magicnum 0x00000000\""
done
wipe_xfs_cmd="$wipe_xfs_cmd $SCRATCH_DEV"
eval $wipe_xfs_cmd
--

The only one problem about this, I think it's the max length of bash command:)
