No. The machine in question never ran any 2.6.17.* kernels. Its old
kernel was 2.6.11.11 (UP), then I tried 2.6.18-rc3-git3 (SMP) as
previously reported, then I tried 2.6.18-rc4 + your XFS patch.

No I/O errors in the logs that I could find, no.

It did not.
What happened was this (didn't save the output sorry, so the below is
from memory) ;
When I ran xfs_repair it first asked me to mount the filesystem to
replay the log, then unmount it again, then run xfs_repair again. I
did that. No errors during that mount or umount.
Then, when I ran xfs_repair again it ran through phases 1..n (spending
aproximately 1hour on this) without any messages saying that something
was wrong, so when it was done I tried mounting the fs again and it
said it did a mount of a clean fs.
It's been running fine since.
