Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately I no longer had the output of 
that, and I wasn't able to reproduce it.

Here's why. While I was waiting for your assistance I decided to take a 
parallel route. Because the S3QL filesystem in this instance was being 
hosted on a local disk I was able to take a VM snapshot of the entire 
system. I removed (renamed) the zero-length s3ql_seq_no_11 file and the 
fsck performed flawlessly. I now have my data - and I've been able to 
extend by host filesystem considerably. (If this hadn't worked I would have 
rewound the snapshot and continued here. Clearly not an option when using a 
real S3-based filesystem, though.)

Regards,
Chris
