Hello Ryusuke,
After the new kernel module (2.0.22) the nilfs partition mounted with no
problems. I have encountered no problems since then. Doing a lssu(1) does not
show segment 759 to be on the list of used segments any further:
lssu -a /dev/sda2

Though dumpseg 759 does not show anything untoward (I don't think its used any
further, correct?):
dumpseg /dev/sda2 759
segment: segnum = 759
sequence number = 608068, next segnum = 760
partial segment: blocknr = 1554432, nblocks = 2048
creation time = 2011-06-23 10:48:02
nfinfo = 652
finfo
ino = 7984, cno = 13, nblocks = 756, ndatblk = 756
vblocknr = 146359, blkoff = 30686, blocknr = 1554444
vblocknr = 146360, blkoff = 30687, blocknr = 1554445
.
.
.
finfo
ino = 16619, cno = 3763620, nblocks = 2, ndatblk = 2
vblocknr = 224656, blkoff = 304, blocknr = 1555200
vblocknr = 224635, blkoff = 305, blocknr = 1555201
finfo
ino = 16619, cno = 3763616, nblocks = 1, ndatblk = 1
vblocknr = 224551, blkoff = 303, blocknr = 1555202
.
.

One other question I have for anybody on the list or Ryusuke, on a corruption
of nilfs on older kernels (pre 2.6.30) should I leave fsck0.nilfs2 to run on
the initscripts besides the new 2.0.22 kernel module or is this really
redundant? Thanks for any help/comments. All, as far as I can see, this is a
pretty cool filesystem.

According to this log, the summary information of segment #759 looks
broken. This may cause future GC failure or filesystem corruption.
Could you confirm whether the segment summary is actually broken or
not ? This can be done with dumpseg tool:
# dumpseg /dev/sda2 759
If it looks actually broken, I recommend you to back up all data as
soon as possible.
