Sorry, doesn't work:

# getfattr -d 852c2690-cf1a-11de-b09b-806e6f6e6963.vhd
getfattr: 852c2690-cf1a-11de-b09b-806e6f6e6963.vhd: Structure needs 
cleaning

So far, so good. I'm on 2.6.34 now. Is there any chance for a fixed 
version of xfs_repair, so that I can either get rid of the 4 broken 
files (i.e. delete them), or repair the filesystem? ATM, xfs_repair 
asserts on this filesystem.
