There is a function ext2fs_extent_header_verify() that should be catching the reported corruption. The extents regression tests that we have for e2fsck are detecting things like bad headers in the tests that we have. Using "debugfs" with "imap" to find and dump the inode blocks for the corrupted inodes would be a good start for tracking this down. If you have the space, saving an "e2image" of the filesystem should also be done for future debugging.
