Once again it's corruption in the upper 32 bits of the 64 bit number.
Those bits should be zero. Perhaps looking at all the trace events
from recovery might give you a closer approximation of where the bad
extent records is found....

I don't know - you're just just going to have to put cheks
everywhere - from when the extent record is first read from disk, to
where it is modified to where it is backed back into disk format.

No surprise, the failures found when removing open-but-unlinked
files after a crash. i.e. during unlink in the final stage of
recover.
