[Fwd: e2fsck Segmentation Fault]

Hi,

Somehow I've managed to get e2fsck to seg fault.. The filesystem in
question started acting very strangely (e.g. filenames changing from
music to MuSiC etc) so I rebooted, and since when fsck has crashed every
time it has been run.

I'm not really sure what any of this means, so I didn't know what
debugging output to include, but below is the output of e2fsck.
(I would have attached the results of dumpe2fs, but the mailing list complained).

Thanks for any help; let me know any more information I can provide 
(I am running debian unstable with a new (2.6.11-ac) kernel (although it
segfaulted on an older kernel too))

e2fsck output:
