   Not sure, but maybe something in the layout of the modified ext2 fs is   
   tripping it up that wasn't there before.  Are you using a period mkfs.ext2   
   or a modern one?

   Could be a compiler thing.  I might try with an older compiler.   
   Or maybe some library is different now from when it was then?   
   Perhaps try building in a VM of a period-correct Linux distro?
