Does this happen if you try to defrag a single file?  i.e. something like:

# for I in `seq 10 -1 0`; do
 dd if=/dev/zero of=fragfile bs=4k count=1 seek=$I conv=notrunc oflag=sync
done

# xfs_fsr fragfile

I'm guessing it requires some activity on the files that are being
defragmented, but maybe worth a test (the test passes fine for me, though).
