Maybe? ...if that's an old version in rhel6.

If you really want to investigate this, you could grab i.e.
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/btrfs-progs/0.20.rc1.20130501git7854c8b/3.fc20/src/btrfs-progs-0.20.rc1.20130501git7854c8b-3.fc20.src.rpm
and rebuild it for something newer.  (Or I could double check . . . )

But honestly as the sgi xfstests maintainer I think you are going well above and beyond your duties here.

Ideally, someone from the btrfs community could help out here, and test/review the change...
