Well, I think it's fairly obvious that a tool written by GNU would support all FAT sizes. The only doubt of that would be DITO, which is user created and might not support all FAT sizes (it doesn't).

I just misinterpreted your reply i guess, but I'm still not going to use mtools' convoluted interface.
