It _should_ be available in the same place as the lustre CVS, in a module
called "lustre-e2fsprogs" insted of the normal "lustre" module.  That said,
I'm not 100% sure because I don't use the external CVS.

Alternately, you can get the e2fsprogs-1.40.11.src.rpm.  This includes
_most_ of the patches in .../patches (except a few newer ones only in CVS)
and are already applied to the sources.  This directory can be moved over
to the e2fsprogs-1.41.x tree and applied with "quilt push -a" (which will
fail at the first one, which adds -sun1 to the e2fsprogs version ;-).

Cheers, Andreas
