Hi Rick,
Try rebooting from an OS X session into CD boot session instead, and run
DFA manually over the drive, which will give detail as to what exactly
it is fixing. It might be something quite trivial or something
dreadfully serious.
One interesting thing I found with OS X was that running DFA from inside
OSX (using Disk Utility) after it's been running for a while with lots
of apps opened and closed, it will almost always give me b-tree errors,
but a simple reboot and they are completely gone. This naturally makes
me suspect the VM scratch files are the varmint, and that the error is a
spurious one.
