I (and others I think) get this sort of thing somewhat regularly on my
news server (running 2.0.33 today):
Apr 5 15:45:29 obi-wan kernel: EXT2-fs warning (device 08:51):
ext2_unlink: Deleting nonexistent file (1401006), 0
Apr 5 15:45:29 obi-wan kernel: EXT2-fs warning (device 08:51):
ext2_free_blocks: bit already cleared for block 2107378
Apr 5 15:45:29 obi-wan kernel: EXT2-fs warning (device 08:51):
ext2_free_inode: bit already cleared for inode 1401006
It seems mostly harmless...and I don't worry about it when I see these
anymore. Occasionally, there really is damage, and e2fsck (1.10) can take
quite a number of minutes to scan/repair a 3gb fs. Last time it happened,
there were very long pauses with no disk activity making me worry the
system might have locked up.
System is a P90 with 128mb, 2 NCR 810 cards, and a motley crew of SCSI
disks:

Currently, /dev/sdf1 claims to be not-clean (cause its mounted) but
doesn't claim to have errors.
