Remember that is strace of
e2fsck ..device..

Are you saying that 2.0 and 2.2 kernels without LFS cannot support e2fsck
checking partitions larger that 2GB?

The e2fsck linked against libc5 or glibc-2.2 completes the check on the very
same partitions using the same runnig kernel. This is why I'm wondering what
I might have messed up with uclibc. Maybe e2fsprogs misdetects uclibc
headers and self-configure with wrong assumptions at compile time?

I set up environment this way before compiling:
export PATH=/usr/i386-linux22-uclibc/usr/bin:$PATH
export CC=/usr/i386-linux22-uclibc/usr/bin/gcc

This is what e2fsprogs set up
