Hi,

As much as it was visible, all writeout stopped after this happened so I could 
only capture it with the camera. Please see the attachment.

This is a known bug.  The the latest mainline version of Linux (I
think 2.6.33-rc2-git4 includes the necessary patch) will no longer
BUG.  There are two more patches which I'm about to push to Linus that
are necessary to fix up a typo and some potential undesirable side
effects of the initial fix of the problem.  If you want to get all of
the fixes, pull in the changes from:

        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git for_linus

Was it triggered by no free space? Later I realised that may be what happened 
when this triggered. I was writing out a large file which may filled the 
filesystem. After reboot file in question had zero size, due to journal replay I 
think, but given the amount of free space on the filesystem I think it might 
have used all space while writing out.

If this is related I will wait for -rc3 and just make sure I don't run out of 
space. :) (So far I avoided starting to build git trees etc)
