Somehow my /usr filesystem ended up being corrupted in such a way that it's 
now recognized as 11 terabytes big and with -11tb free... fsck fails with 
"Cannot alloc 1683933532 bytes for inphead" and when I mount the corrupted fs 
as it is, running pretty much any program completely freezes the system 
(5.3-RELEASE-p1).

What can I do now to make fsck work? I'm amazed something like this can happen 
at all. :-(
