I'm curious how common it is to have the journal bit set but no journal block, 
I haven't seen this case so far.
IMO more useful would be to read the journal block and check if there is 
anything that needs to be replayed.
If you're interested in a second step you could replay the journal, it's not 
that difficult to do, it's pretty much just copying blocks around.

bye, Roman
