Hi Alex,

I think you are right.  The extent flags are printed in hex, so it 
should be xdigit.  The existing _filter_fiemap routine that I modeled 
this code from is also only parsing decimal digits.  Even though the 
tests are not showing any problems right now, it should probably be 
fixed.  Should I submit a patch to correct it?
