Yes,
I put the computer running memtest86 after getting your email and it did in 
fact pass all tests (after ~24hrs i aborted the test). 

I have fairly recently upgraded the computer by adding a memory module which i 
suspected would show up the errors (if any).

After running the test I fsck:ed to remove the corruptions, then proceeded by 
removed my /usr/portage tree (where corruptions seem to easily occur) and 
reinstalled all the files (with rsync). The same type of corruption occured 
but now to a different directory than "usual". 

I have absolutely no idea what causes it. Nothing shows up in syslog and there 
doesn't seem to be any problems with the hard drive (which, by the way is a 
2Gb drive with the corruptions occuring on a 1.6 Gb partition).

Thanks,
Dan Nilsson
