We've been playing with the fsfuzzer tool referenced there for a while
(and several other similar tools -- in fact, the recent 1k block bug was
 found by a different filesystem fuzz tool), and people are already looking
into bugs found by it.  Eric Sandeen already fixed up a few problem areas
in ext3 for example, which is fixed in the soon-to-be-released update
for FC5/FC6.

I don't think I'm going to lose any more sleep than usual :)
