Thanks (also thanks to Christoph)!

I didn't forget about this task. It's still in my TODO list.

It seems that the fsck wrapper in e2fsprogs is optional
(--enable-fsck) so we needn't any extra change to e2fsprogs.

It would be nice to add a note

    "fsck is deprecated in favor of fsck from util-linux-ng"

to RELEASE-NOTES in e2fsprogs.

What about to move the fsprobe library wrapper to lib/ ?

We also need a --disable-fsck configure option.
