My mistake, sorry about that.  It appears to have fallen out of the
recent patches, as I was also working with InterMezzo and OBDFS (real
job) in the same kernel tree as ext2online, and I accidentally deleted
the config option along with the other (non-ext2online related) changes
to Config.in.  What you need is:

if [ "$CONFIG_EXT2_FS" != "n" -a "$CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL" = "y" ]; then
  bool '  Online ext2 resize support (DANGEROUS)' CONFIG_EXT2_RESIZE
fi

in fs/Config.in, after the CONFIG_EXT2_FS option (same for 2.2 and 2.3).

I've added this to the kernel patches in the CVS tree and they will make
it into the next release, and I've split my kernel development into
separate trees to avoid this problem in the future.

Cheers, Andreas
