Actually, I think I might have solved my problem. I haven't actually looked
at the streams I extracted, so don't take my work for it, though.

What I did was I made backups of /dev/hdb2 and /dev/hdb3, then I recreated
them as sym-links to /dev/hda12 and /dev/hda13. ExtractStream happily ran
at that point. I'm going to assume that this is probably fixed in the CVS
version, I'm running 0.2.
