If those issues are logically independent from each other,
it would be nice to split this patch into small ones.

I would like to expect you to add more test cases, especially
against corner cases that you mentioned above, to test/py/tests/est_fs
as I did in test_ext.py.
Or at least please add more assertion checks.

I think that we should change this condition as
        if (pos < cur_pos)
                break;
then modify the following code accordingly as well.

In this way, 'curclust' points to [cur_pos - bytesperclust, cur_pos)
and 'pos' is ensured to be in the middle after this 'while' unless
        (pos == cur_pos) && IS_LAST_CLUST(curclust,...).

Then the code will be expected to look better understandable.

Thanks,
