On a related note - the FIEMAP patches to filefrag also include a new
output format that is much more useful, IMHO.  The new format is like:

{filename}
ext: [logical start.. end kB]: phys start..end kB    :           kB:lun: flags
  0: [         0..     30207]:     401416..    522251:       120828: 0 :
  1: [     30208..     60927]:     532480..    655359:       122880: 0 :
  2: [     60928..    121855]:     790536..    916484:       125948: 0 :

Hopefully Kalpak will be able to post the updated patches here soon.

Cheers, Andreas
