As its a very big partition and it's half-full, I don't wan't to risk a
data loss. Just when there is definitly no other way I would do so.

Ok, Without writing anything to the disk I got the following output:
Warning: FAT32 support is still ALPHA.
File system has 12053628 clusters but only space for 3664510 FAT entries.
dosfsck 2.8 (28 Feb 2001)
dosfsck 2.8, 28 Feb 2001, FAT32, LFN
BTW, is the the newest version of fsck.msdos?
If you would like i can send you my fat.
Cheers,
Karsten
