Looks good so far. What does:
  [kay at pim udev.kay]$ find /usr/include/ -name "*.h" -print |xargs grep BLKGETSIZE64
  /usr/include/linux/fs.h:#define BLKGETSIZE64 _IOR(0x12,114,size_t)
  /usr/include/sys/mount.h:#define BLKGETSIZE64 _IOR(0x12,114,size_t) /* return device size.  */

print on your box?

What does:
  ls -l /sys/block/hda/*

print?
