If you ran your tests against the btrfs-progs in Fedora 18 then your 
tests may not have found problems fixed by the "valgrind" patch on F18.  
This patch is not applied to the current David Sterba's integration 
branches.

If you have the time, it might be useful (my opinion) to run your tests 
against Sterba's integration-02130201 branch ... some of the problems 
may be fixed and other not but you also may find some additional 
problems.  IMO, this branch (or something similar) will be the basis for 
a future v0.20 btrfs-progs ... at least that is what I am using/testing 
with.  There are over 80 commits in this branch over what is the baseis 
for the package in Fedora 18.
