The filesystem image appears to be just fine. xfs_repair on x86_64 does not complain about it, nor does xfs_check. Mounting and running find on it on my current 3.8-dev kernel does not cause any problems, either. And looking directly at the structures on disk I can't see any obvious problems. Hence whatever issue is being seen must be to do with the way the compiled ARM code is interpreting the on-disk structures....
