I think it should. You are subscribed to the e2compr list, aren't you?
I posted something on this the other day. (Or maybe you don't have
mail filtering; the subject line was `minor change necessary for
2.1.78'.) Anyway, there's an e2compr patch for 2.1.78 that I've been
using without any troubles (though I haven't tried to break it) for the
past few hours. Get it from <http://netspace.net.au/e2compr/software.html>.
Btw, the change was in ext2_readpage(). i_op->readpage's first param is
now of type dentry*.
