Yeah, reiserfsck doesn't check them. If you run into these once in a
while, then setfattr -b is the answer. If you're seeing them en masse,
something is wonky.

I saw a report on b.n.c indicating that someone ran into these while
running a vanilla kernel, but the suse kernel doesn't exhibit the
problem. This isn't really surprising since the suse kernel contains the
"latest" reiser3 development. I know. I need to push it upstream.
