Sorry, I missed that bit at the end, was too keen to click through to the
note about the alleged ext2 bug :-) I will make sure those changes are made
as well. By location do you mean the location of the v3, v2, etc. stuff and

patches themselves? Again, thank you for your feedback and for being patient
with me, I really do appreciate it.
