Er... I confess it was just a hunch, I did run --check but as I recall it did 
not tell me to, it did say there were corruptions in any case. The filesystem 
needed fixing and fix-fixable seemed less drastic than rebuild... (The 
undeletable files were basically a thorn in my eye and I just wanted to be 
sure there were no corruptions other than these clearly visible ones).

Yes, reiserfsck finished properly.

It would be nice to recover most of the fs. I'd probably be better using some 
standard, tested reiserfsck-binaries over my own this time I suppose?

Thanks a lot, Vitaly.
