Hm, while not what I was expecting to see, it still looks much more like
a driver/disk problem than du's... but now I'm curious what could make
du fail like that, while ls -l doesn't.

Also, the fact that "looking" at ext2fs/ with ls -l "fixes" du's ability
to se ext2fs seems to support this conclusion strongly.

I'm going to set the coreutils bug back to Confirmed, out of respect for
its previous setting; I'll also set the kernel bug the same. Hopefully,
we'll be able to rule out one or the other, and reject it appropriately.
