Well that's clever of you :) According to google, only
one other person has ever hit this with ext3. Several
people have hit it on ext2. It does appear to be related
to I/O errors on the underlying device.

Could you please force a fsck against that filesystem and
also check you logs for any disk I/O warnings.

already done so, forced fsck and looked in the logs, but there are no I/O
Errors, but the ext3_unlink message. It appears more often the last hours
:-(
