Ok, the problem appears to have been fixed.  I venture the bug is likely 
in the e2fs tools for the simple reason that on the last time I took the 
machine down for maintenance, I ran e2fsck five times and got different 
results for the first three runs.  Now before everyone flys off the 
handle with their favorite flamethrower, the server was in single user 
mode with nothing else running but the kernel threads.  There weren't 
any processes left and lsof was also clean.  I have also been forcing 
fsck on boot every time.

The machine has been up for four days now without any errors and no 
unaccounted for disk space.

David
