In a word: No.  Sorry.

If I recall correctly, the size of the link table is set only to 20.  We had
this problem before and had to recompile fsck will a bigger table in order to
fix our filesystems.  Easy if you have the source, the constant is MAXLNCNT
(or something close), impossible if you don't have the source.
