[Instructions for applying these patches with guilt]

I've exported the rebased series as a git branch in my repo:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/val/e2fsprogs.git

Branch "shared-64bit".

The commit that introduces the failing regression test is:

commit de119e26eb2cf041a8365994dc3a32efc080682e
Author: Valerie Aurora Henson <[email protected]>
Date: Tue Feb 3 13:15:19 2009 -0800

e2fsck: Miscellaneous e2fsck-related 64-bit fixes.

With this change, e2fsck runs to completion on a minimal 33-bit file system.

I won't be able to get to this for another week or so, so if anyone
else wants to take a whack at it, I'd be grateful.

I've fixed the above and redid the progress meter patches as you
requested. I made some attempt to work with the guilt patch queue but
gave up, so the patch set is in the git branch "shared-64bit-handover"
at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/val/e2fsprogs.git

I need you (or Jose) to take the lead on these from here on out; I
have to do things other than work on e2fsprogs in order to justify my
existence at Red Hat. :)
