Subject:   fragmentation reports on clean reboots

Hi,
	I'm using FreeBSD-2.2.6 and whenever I reboot my machine, I see reports
of disk fragmentation and the machine spends 5 seconds or so fixing the
problem. This happens even when the previous reboot was a clean one (no 
kernel crashes). (Of course if there's an OS crash, the filesystem needs a
longer time to fix upon a reboot.) Can someone tell me why FreeBSD reports
filesystem defects even when previous shutdown was a clean one ? I think
the problem also exists on FreeBSD-3.x (someone told me) though I haven't
had first-hand experience with that.
