The only ways to make sure are;
1) go through the source and look for places where block numbers are 
carried in 32 bit variables
2) test it filling the system with more than one 1TB used on each 
subdisk (>3TB in your case)

I think there would be quite a few people appreciating the results. 
However, the fsck problem
will persist for filesystems larger than 3TB.
