Well, yes and no.  The *BSD people have actually come up with a very elegant 
solution called Soft Updates, which essentially negates the need for a 
journal, yet provides the same levels of protection for the filesystem's 
integrity that a journal would.

There's an overview of it at http://www.freebsd.org/features.html, and 
someone else might have a URL for a detailed explanation.
