I did quick tests using above patch, and it seemed to work ok.

However, you will need a bleeding edge distro to compile that. It won't
compile on all boxes. util-linux-2.12r and earlier are compatible with many
distros, including older ones. It's pretty sad to see such excellent
compatibility ruined by this "new" -ng version.  :(
