I should have done that first, I suppose.  I did end up shutting down to
single user mode, unmounting the logical volume, and using debugfs to
clear the inode (which still reported the file as being a socket).  This
actually happend to one other file, and a third was a corrupted symbolic
link of some kind.  Regardless, with these three files cleared,
fsck.ext3 happily cleared dtime's and reset inode sizes until I had a
working system again.  Thanks to all who sent me suggestions.
