Update Makefile dependencies.
Update "make depend" production so that it filters out comments
inserted by newer gcc compilers.
Remove sync from e2fsck's "make all" target.
release blocks if the inode has them; otherwise attempting
to rm devices and fast symlinks will lead to errors.

some generated files, by having subst update the modtime on these
files even when the generated file hasn't changed. We do this with
generated files that do not have any downstream dependencies.
numbers for block/character devices.
(do_mknod): Add support for new-style device numbers (where
the major or minor number is greater than 255 and less
than 65535). (Addresses Sourceforge bug #865289)
automatically call ext2fs_expand_dir() and then retry to
add the link to the directory as a convenience to the
user. (Addresses Debian Bug: #217892)
(do_mknod): Clean up expand_dir error handling.
superblock. E2fsck will automatically save the journal information
in the superblock if it is not there already, and will use it if the
journal inode appears to be corrupted. ext2fs_add_journal_inode()
will also save the backup information, so that new filesystems
created by mke2fs and filesystems that have journals added via
tune2fs will also have journal location written to the superblock as
well. Debugfs's logdump command has been enhanced so that it can
use the journal information in the superblock.
The debugfs man page has been improved to more fully describe the
logdump command.
Added two new functions, ext2fs_file_open2() and
ext2fs_inode_io_intern2() which take a pointer to an inode structure;
this is needed so that e2fsck and debugfs can synthesize a
fake journal inode and use it to access the journal.

Define and use a new function, reset_getopt(), which does whatever
is necessary to reset getopt() again. This is different for
different implementations, so the portabilty issues are a bit of a
nightmare. (Addresses Debian bug #192834)
Fix typo's in README.subset
Change debian control file so it doesn't bomb out if the EVMS FSIM
is not there, since it is not built on the Hurd. Resolves Debian
bug #189687.
When byte-swapping a filesystem on a PPC architecture, byte-swap
the bitmaps since the historical big-endian ext2 variant had
byte-swapped bitmaps, and the ext2fs library assumes this. Otherwise
the regression test suite will fail...
superblock. Dumpe2fs can now print out these fields, and they
can be modified using debugfs's set_super_value command. Also added
to debugfs was the ability to set s_uuid and s_journal_uuid features
as well.
