Repair trips over them and removes them (because they
fail alignment checks). I haven't looked to see if it needs anything
more than to consider the alignment of these sparse chunks as being
ok. I suspect the same for scrub - as long as the alignment checks
out, it shouldn't need to fail the cluster...
