 This state can be achieved (and sometimes is achieved) after a server 
 hangup and/or reset.
 I cannot agree that using fsck -B should lead to panic, because there is 
 no way to distinguish filesystem between the state where it can be cured 
 with fsck -B and where it can not. After all, this is what the bgfsck is 
 for.
