1.1.4 is quite old.  Can you try a recent version of jfsutils?
http://jfs.sourceforge.net/project/pub/jfsutils-1.1.8.tar.gz

If that doesn't work, you can try running "fsck.jfs
--omit_journal_replay", since it is trapping while replaying the
journal.  If all else fails, you should be able to mount it read-only
(mount -oro) to recover the data.

Thanks,
Shaggy
