Um, which user-space program is needing this data structure?  You do
realize that (a) this data structure is not guaranteed to be constant
across kernel versions, and (b) has little or nothing to do with the
on-disk superblock layout?

User-space programs should be using the ext2 libraries and header
files which are shipped with e2fsprogs.
