When it was added to BusyBox, the people who wrote the makefiles didn't care
about backwards compatability. It won't build on Linux versions older than
about 3 years.
I kept meaning to do something about it (the whole of the e2fsprogs directory
is crap and needs a complete rewrite, actually), but I'm not good with
makefiles...
