Can you check again? I think I solved at least Lucho's problem during the init phase -- when fnodes could overlap disk buffers! Weird things could happen indeed. After booting I haven't seen the message you quote though, so please let me know how to reproduce if it still occurs for you. I made an intermediate kernel tarball just in case the cronjob fails.
