  deprecated by this release

- added several patches to fix warnings generated by the check_gcc_output
  and rpmlint
- update to 1.42
  * this release has support for file systems >16TB. online resize
    requires kernel support which will hopefully be in kernel version
    3.2. offline support is not yet available for >16TB, but will be
    coming
  * this release has support for clustered allocation, which reduces
    the number of block (now cluster) bitmaps by allocating and
    deallocating space in contiguous power-of-2 collections of blocks,
    which are called clustered. This is a filesystem level feature
    called 'bigalloc', which must be enabled when the filesystem is
    inititally formatted. It is not backwards compatible with older
    kernels.
  * added support for the Multi-Mount Protection (MMP) feature
  * The mke2fs and e2fsck programs now tries to use the punch hole command 
    as a "discard" when operating on normal files.
  * The resize2fs program now has support for a new online resize ioctl 
    that can support file systems > 16TB, once it arrives in v3.x kernels.
  * Added e4defrag tool which uses the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.
  * Added support for journals larger than 2GB.
  * Added internationalization support for libcom_err error table strings.
  * Fixed various spelling mistakes found in various output strings found by 
    I18N translators.
  * Update translations: French, Chinese, Germany, Indonesian, Swedish, 
    Vietnamese, Polish, Dutch, Czech. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #520985, 
    #620659)
