This will cause a copy of `nibblemap' to be included in each compilation
unit which uses ext2.h.  Unless the compiler is sufficiently smart to elide
it, which it might be.  But then it might be sufficiently smart to generate
a "you're not usig this" warning too.

If it's only needed for EXT2_DEBUG then I'd be inclined to move it into one
of the other .c files, inside EXT2_DEBUG.  Or just leave it as-is.
