Fat32 support?

Ok, if this is a holy war tell me and I'll drop it.

I have a couple of 4gig drives. They're partitioned in 2 gig pieces as
Windows won't read 4Gig disks. I've recently been corrected in that OSR2
with fat32 support can read the 4Gig drives. A friend gave me a patch to
2.1.56+ kernels to read a fat32 partition.

Does anyone know if/when fat32 will be supported without this patch? If
it's soon, I'll hold off on rebuilding everything for a few weeks. If not
I'll start playing with the patch (something I don't like to do).
