shit, I thought testing over an hour (10mins your program, umount, fsck -fD
test.img in a loop) is enough but it isn't. Damn f*ck :(

root@codeman:[/] # fsck -fD test.img
fsck 1.29 (24-Sep-2002)

Heh, I wonder why it happens faster here. I usually don't umount, and my
loopback filesystem is small enough that everything fits in RAM. Maybe my
Athlon XP 1800+ contributes to my computer's raw filesystem corruption power?
