Off-list shirish sent more info; the fs is being marked w/ errors via:

/var/log/kern.log:Dec 19 19:55:39 shirish-desktop kernel: [
158.989493] EXT3-fs error (device sdb7): ext3_free_blocks_sb: bit
already cleared for block 493569

... etc, which explains why it's finding an error-marked fs on fsck and
why fsck finds work to do.

I don't know what kernel this is running on...

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git&a=commitdiff&h=72ed3d035855841ad611ee48b20909e9619d4a79

fixed one cause of this.  Unless you can reproduce on an upstream kernel
you might bug Ubuntu about it.
