OK, great. 1.41.12 does fix a number of high priority bugs beyond the
commit which you've grabbed, but it does introduce one, which will be
fixed in 1.41.13 (to be released in a few days).

The unfixed bugs in Ubuntu's e2fsprogs are probably only going to
matter for server workloads, and that's OK, because the 2.6.32
kernel's ext4 is missing so many bug fixes it's really not going to be
ready for server-class workloads anyway. (Hint: take a look at all of
the ext4 patches which Red Hat rawhide has taken for 2.6.32.)
