Hi, ... On Xavier Oswald's proding, i had a look at the history of this bug. I don't really know much about NTFS and other windowy filesystems, so i cannot really give much info, which is why i didn't help investigate these bugs.
Now, one of the recomendation was to change the alignement issues, and there was a note of the current way of things being so for pre-LBA compatibility issues, which brang into memory the whole huge set of problems which where present 1-2 years ago with windowy filesystem resizing. As such, i strongly urge you (Maybe otavio or xavier are the best candidates for that), to take contact with upstream, and not to try to solve the issue alone in debian, and possibly do something which may break the other compatibility issue affecting older hardware, which we may or not be able to detect before the etch release.
