(a similar patch could be done for ext2; does anyone in their right mind use ext2 at 16T?

well, a bug's a bug. People might want to ue 16TB ext2 for comparative
performance testing, or because they get their jollies from running fsck or
something.

ext2 and ext3 have seemingly already diverged a bit, but I suppose no reason to let it go further.

I'll send an ext2 patch doing the same thing if that's warranted)

please, when you have nothing better to do ;)

Will do :)
