I was waiting to see whether you wanted me to do something else. I've just
tried it and it didn't:

/dev/md0: Note: if several inode or block bitmap blocks or part
of the inode table require relocation, you may wish to try
running e2fsck with the '-b 32768' option first. The problem
may lie only with the primary block group descriptors, and
the backup block group descriptors may be OK.

No. The filesystem was used to store rsync snapshots of other file systems
(using the hard link feature). I had only rsynced the initial data and run a
couple of rsync backups on to it. The filesystem was created using:
mkfs.ext4 -m0 -b 4096 -E stride=8,stripe-width=72 /dev/md0

Oh dear. The system has ECC ram (though linux doesn't know about it, so it
may not be working) and the md device is using 10 drives on raid5 and a
3ware controller.
Maybe I should force a md raid5 resync to check the drives agree with each
other.
