I had a look at the fedora version of ext2resize (part of the
e2fsprogs package), and found several patches which seem to be missing
from the upstream version:

  ext2resize-1.1.17.tar.bz2
  ext2resize-byteorder.patch
  ext2resize-canonicalise.patch
  ext2resize-compiler-warning-fixes.patch
  ext2resize-cvs-20040419.patch
  ext2resize-gcc34-fixes.patch
  ext2resize-nofallback.patch
  ext2resize-nowrite.patch
  ext2resize-printf-format-fixes.patch

At least the byteorder patch seem to be relevant for the bug list I
mentioned.

I used
<URL:ftp://ftp.uio.no/linux/Fedora/core/4/SRPMS/e2fsprogs-1.37-4.src.rpm>,
not sure if that is the latest fedora version.
