What would also actually be interesting is whether somebody can reproduce
this on Reiserfs, for example. I _think_ all the reports I've seen are on
ext2 or ext3, and if this is somehow writeback-related, it could be some
bug that is just shared between the two by virtue of them still having a
lot of stuff in common.

I've been following this thread for a while now as I started
experiencing file corruption in rtorrent when I upgraded to 2.6.19. I
am using reiserfs.
