Running the ext2 recover program seems to trigger some good bugs in 
2.6.10 with ext3 -- try it.  I was doing this
to test some disk tools and I managed to cause these errors with forcing 
ext2 recovery from an ext3 fs (which is
probably something to be expected.  The recover tools need to get 
syncrhonized -- have not tried with
mc yet.)    Doesn't happen every time though.
