That's what I thought about ext3 partitions, but I've never had to
recover one. From a different angle, is there any heartbeat command line
that could clear the cib.xml in this way? I'm wondering if someone was
on our system prior to the power failure, accidentally cleared it out,
and then the power failed causing a reboot. At this point I'm grasping
at straws.

Well if partitions are getting corrupted we're kinda helpless :-)
But isn't ext3 (by virtue of being journaled) supposed to protect
against that sort of thing?
