Maybe they've changed it, but at least in older versions that would
only fix some things and others would require a manual run. On a
machine that was busy when it crashed I'd often have to do it by
hand. This was mostly with ext2 filesystems - ext3 seems fairly
likely to come out ok with just the journal replay and no fsck.
