Hm, that's what I used.  I zeroed out the whole usb disk and tried again
and it worked then, I was trying to debug the kernel changes, not the
userspace tool, so I didn't spend much time on it :)

But, if you do get a public git tree up, I will at the very least,
provide a patch to handle '-h' properly for mkfs, that should work...
