"DriveStatusError" is "Command Aborted" in ac-speak.
From the man page for smartctl, we read:

-o VALUE  Enables or disables SMART automatic offline test ...
Note that the SMART automatic offline test command is listed as "Obsolete"
in every
version of the ATA and ATA/ATAPI Specifications. It was originally part
of the
SFF-8035i Revision 2.0 specification, but was never part of any ATA
specification.

There's a chance that your drives simply do not fully support this feature,
and are rejecting attempts to use it.

By the way, the latest 2.6.16-rc5-git4 is available,
and has FUA turned off by default now.  So it should
work with your drives, and *you* are expected to verify
that for us all now.

I am using 2.6.16-rc5-git4, and after running:

# smartctl -data -o off /dev/sdc

I get:

Did you mean you wanted us to test it like we normally do, ie, copy files/md5sum them on the disk and see if we can make it occur again, or?
