Subjectsparse superblock

Weren't the sparse superblock changes merged into ext2? I created a
filesystem (mke2fs -s 1 /dev/hdc4) and ended up with:

Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hdc4 7285391 -27197 6935042 0% /mnt/4

as opposed to the non-sparse ext2 system of:

Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hdc4 7285391 13 6907832 0% /mnt/4

Thought it might save space under a 7 gig parition by reducing
redundancies. mke2fs was 1.10.
