I haven't checked the code but my guess is the dir_index flag causes
this. If I'm right the error message should be rephrased but the
failure is valid.

e2defrag needs some major source changes (variable type but not code)
to compile on !i386 archs that I have pending for after sarge and I'm
realy busy with work and amd64 currently. I hope you can wait a while
for this.

PS: can you reproduce this with a freshly amde fs?
mke2fs [--some-options] /dev/ram0; e2defrag /dev/ram0?
