Well, this means my rc6-mm1 is different to what you have. :-)

Anyway in "my" version there's a function ext3_get_block() which reads like this:

static int ext3_get_block(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock,
                        struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create)
{
        handle_t *handle = journal_current_handle();
        int ret = 0;
        unsigned max_blocks = bh_result->b_size >> inode->i_blkbits;

        if (!handle)
                goto get_block;         /* A read */

        if (max_blocks == 1)
                goto get_block;         /* A single block get */

etc.

I guess I should replace the "if (!handle)" with "if (!create)"?
