And I've realized that I really should start using git to make it easier
on Ted.  :)

Yep, there were 2 problems.

One was that inode_scan_and_fix() wasn't moving all of large inodes.

The other was that ext2fs_swap_inode_full was doing bad things for
in-inode attrs on big endian boxes, that was the patch in this thread
which isn't in the repo yet, but is in fact needed.

I suppose that the iterative nature of my fix for this problem didn't
help Ted keep things straight, sorry.
