After playing around with e2fsck (today's git of the "pu" branch) a bit
more, I still cannot use -D on this filesystem. I've tried with earlier
version, but it still dumps core in pass 3A (Optimizing directories). I've
compiled e2fsprogs with "CFLAGS="-g" ./configure --enable-htree; make",
too get a few more results when this happens. Running under gdb gives:
(gdb) run -Dfv /dev/md4
Starting program: /opt/e2fsprogs/sbin/e2fsck -Dfv /dev/md4
e2fsck 1.40.7 (28-Feb-2008)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 3A: Optimizing directories

The full backtrace: http://nerdbynature.de/bits/e2fsprogs.pu/e2fsck-1.40.7-Dfv.log
The filesystem in question has been created in 11/2007 - maybe I missed
some on-disk changes since then and have to recreate the fs?
Thanks,
Christian.

Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. Pass3A doesn't deal with
directories stored in extent format yet, and you must have one or more
directories directories in extent format. So e2fsck -D won't work.
This is a bug; I'll work on getting it fixed.

Ah, good to know :)
Thanks for your time,
