Did you do a commit fixing this today or maybe its working from other
patches you made to mkfs? I just tried compiling the newest source from
svn and I created a file-system using the block device that before
failed fsck and now is working:

I also tested with a 36TB sparse file which appeared to be working as
well (not shoing the type of behavior it was before):
