OK, I found that (shouldn't this be documented in the NOTES file,
even if it is an experimental patch?), and made a new kernel with it.

Well, it works here too, on a 234GB partition. Sort of, at least.
I can mount the partition, and copy files to (and from) it, make
directories and so on. But, I get lots of "invalid file handle" messages
when I try to copy files to it. That makes it unusable for me.

I guess I'll have to use something else.
