Added e3cfsprogs and ext3cow-tools. Ext3cow is a stand-alone disk file system, (e.g. ReiserFS, HFS, NTFS) based on ext3, that supports versioning through copy-on-write and a time-shifting interface. svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=9010 2007-07-20 15:50:54 +00:00			`source $stdenv/setup`

There is a bug in ext3cow causing all rights to reset too root after a remount. The devvers at ext3cow.com are too lazy too release a new version, but the bug is fixed in their svn sources, so ive made a patch from those sources, which ive tested and it works. svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=9515 2007-10-23 17:56:10 +00:00			`#we must rename according to the manual of e3cfprogs`
