we've been successfully using md's mirror consistency-checking capabilities to spot the corruption. if we can get an IO pattern that reproduces the issue, we're golden. if only we didn't other things to do with our time that were actually productive for us ;) hopefully we'll be able to report back soon-ish with more.
