Doesn't look like the fixed version was ever pushed out to Trusty. If you are using trusty and need this fixed, simply download the source to your machine and compile it. If you have the build-essential and git packages installed, it's quite simple. Clone the git repo source for the latest version and then cd into it and type:
./configure
make

After that, you will have the needed binaries in that folder. You can run them directly from there when you want to use that version rather than the on in Trusty.

I compiled 1.43.6 from source and used resize2fs from there to successfully resize from 21 -> 24 TB on a RAID6.
