What configure options did you use when you built lustre?  I think "-- 
with-ldiskfsprogs" will configure lustre to use these names, however  
the standard version the e2fs utils doesn't use this naming scheme.   
This would be used, for instance, if you needed to have both the  
original and ldiskfs version of e2fsutils installed at the same time.
