Hmmm... The bug I was thinking of (affected ext3 with dir_index if you
didn't use no_subtree_check) was fixed will before 2.6.17 came out.

What filesystem are you using?  If ext3, what does
  tune2fs -l /dev/XXXX
say (for the device holding the filesystem).

I wouldn't both.  If no_subtree_check fixes it, then tcpdump won't
show us anything interesting.
