gfs_fsck problems (not doing get_get_meta_buffer)

gfs_fsck seems to break my filesystem!

Here's the sequence of events (everything acts as expected unless I
state otherwise):

pvcreate /dev/sda; pvcreate /dev/sdb
vgcreate gfs_vg /dev/sda /dev/sdb
vgdisplay
lvcreate -l 4171379 gfs_vg -n gfs_lv (the extents number obviously
gleaned from vgdisplay)
vgchange -aly
gfs_mkfs -p lock_dlm -t mycluster:gfs1 -j 8 /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv

mount -t gfs /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv /mnt/disk2
df -h /mnt/disk2
cd /mnt/disk2
touch 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
ls -lh

cd ..
umount /mnt/disk2
gfs_fsck -nvv /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv (output below - notice I'm running it
read-only)

mount -t gfs /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv /mnt/disk2
cd /mnt/disk2 (successful)
ls -lh (successful)

cd ..
umount /mnt/disk2
gfs_fsck -vv /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv (output below)

mount -t gfs /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv /mnt/disk2 (output below)

mount: No such file or directory

The syslog shows:

Lock_Harness 2.6.9-34.R5.2 (built May 11 2006 14:15:58) installed
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 kernel: GFS 2.6.9-34.R5.2 (built May 11 2006
14:16:10) installed
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 kernel: GFS: Trying to join cluster "fsck_dlm",
"mycluster:gfs1"
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 kernel: lock_harness:  can't find protocol fsck_dlm
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 kernel: GFS: can't mount proto = fsck_dlm,
table = mycluster:gfs1, hostdata =
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 mount: mount: No such file or directory
May 11 15:12:43 gfstest1 gfs: Mounting GFS filesystems:  failed

If I use the following to change the lock method, I can mount it again:

gfs_tool sb /dev/gfs_vg/gfs_lv proto lock_dlm

but shortly after I'll sometimes get I/O errors on the drive not letting
me cd into it or ls or df.

fsck isn't supposed to break clean filesystems so does anyone have any
ideas?

FYI - The other machines in the cluster were at no point mounting the
filesystem during this exercise.
