thanks for answer, so please let me know where I can get the patch.
And I have another question - again maybe this is not good idea, but:
if we can fsck of snapshot (without error fixing), so maybe
it would be possible to store output data from readonly fscking
and just feed reiserfsck in rw mode to avoid scanning whole fs during 
repairing,
and fix only corrupted places found during readonly scan?
