Filesystems should be transparent to programs 99% of the time in my 
humble little opinion. If ext4 depends on having falloc() calls then 
ext4 has a bug. File a bug on it.

XFS, btrfs, or any file system that's better than the extX series don't 
seem to have issues with requiring this function call.
