Oh, right. Sorry, I missed that. I think I know what's going on. The problem is we're not supporting long symlinks which are in extents format. That's something which we changed, but we're going to change back (since we need it to support filesystems with > 2**32 blocks).
When you say "changed", you mean the on-disk format changed? If so, I could (should?) just mkfs again, since ext4 is in flux anyway and nobody said the on-disk format was frozen. IOW, I don't know if it's wise to put in quirks just because of some old test-environment. When ext4 is (offically) released, everybody will have the "right" format and e2fsck will work as expected, no?
