[Bug 463015] [NEW] grub-probe incorrectly identifies ext3 as fat

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

grub-probe incorrectly identifies my ext3 partition as containing a fat
file system.  This means it can't boot without manual tweaking.

I suspect the problem is that my partition contains stale fat
signatures... this is probably a common problem, as mke2fs often doesn't
wipe old signatures.

I attached first 8k of my file system for testing purposes.
