xfs corruption or not

Hi,

I had defective SDRAM which was causing in-memory corruption on xfs and
freezing my machine (input/output errors)... so I replaced it with 128MB
of ancient memory that seems to work - passes memtest and no more i/o
errors. I also did an xfs_repair on the system, which corrected problems..

However, thunderbird still generates the following oops, and then it
becomes unkillable. Do you think this is most likely due to:
- memory is still defective
- there's corruption on-disk which isn't fixed
or
- this is an actual bug in xfs

Note that there's no input/output errors after the oops, and only
thunderbird causes this (so far).
