Yes Eric, that's what I wrote but I see it can be misinterpreted as 
belonging to the old case. I meant the actual problem when saying:

I had to run xfs_repair several times again until all errors were 
solved, and now nothing is reported anymore. The server had no crash or 
whatever since the last repair, so I wonder where these corruptions come 
from.

Seems to be time to make a memory check. I have no other idea where the 
problem could come from.
