Ooops.

The hardware? Given that you were getting read I/O errors from the
hardware when shutting the fs down you probably got those as well when
running repair and that caused the segfault. Can you run xfs_repair
under gdb for me, that is:

gdb /path/to.xfs_repair

(gdb) set args /dev/cciss/c0d5p1
(gdb) run

and see what backtrace it gives you?

Please make sure to build xfs_repair in the git tree manually using
make and not the Debian packaging, as that removes the debug symbols.

You can run gdb on the xfs_repair binary just built in the tree, no
need to install it first.
