64bit sector numbers work just fine on 32-bit machines.
At some point ext4 is probably going to be the de facto standard, which
very many people want to use, because it has all the new features, which
won't be ported to ext2/3. So I still don't understand, what's so wrong
about a little tuning in both directions?
Just seems like wasted effort to me.
