Jeff Garzik was working on it, but he had to give it up for various
reasons and couldn't even release what he had already done for various
other (legal) reasons.  I started poking around with the same project
but could never find a description of the ext2fs structure--it's not
in the KHG and I had too many questions about unexplained stuff in the
header files.  Now I have no time.  Sigh.
