Where did you get this information from? Just because the fs has the 'has_journal' flag set doesn't mean the kernel is ext3 capable. As you can see from the /proc/mounts output, the roots is still mounted as ext2. If you've gone all the way to simulate David's problem, please also be so kind to try to make a initrd image and boot with it.
