Seems to be failing to open the journal. Do you use an external
journal? If so, what device is it on?

Found a bug. not checking the return code of findLog() properly.
Fixing this will result in jfs_fsck failing cleanly rather than a
segfault, but probably won't get you any further.

I'm guessing that the filesystem is still clean, and the rw mount is
failing for the same reason as jfs_fsck. It doesn't find the journal.

If you're using an external journal, then it may be a configuration
error and the kernel isn't configuring the journal device. If not, then
I'll have to dig deeper.
