I am using LVM, but not for /boot, /, or /var.  I typically use software
RAID 1 for those so that any troubleshooting/recovery is a bit easier.

I think you are correct.  It doesn't make sense that the filesystem would
have an issue, because after all it mounts in other OSes and it passes
e2fsck just fine.  It's in one of the mount-related utilities or the
kernel.  That said, it's possible that there might be a change to the
filesystem that would allow the issue to be avoided.

Any idea of how one might go about troubleshooting this further?
