Run:
spacewalk-data-fsck --remove

And sync missing packages again.

Thanks for the suggestion, I gave it a try.  After the resync, behavior
still presents itself.  I then removed all of the packages from all channels
on the web UI, then I moved the /var/satellite directory aside.  I ran
spacewalk-data-fsck again and I still see the files reported as missing.
It's almost as if the database is screwed up and the file lists aren't being
removed/updated in there.  Shouldn't it be not seeing any files to remove
since the channels aren't supposed to have anything in them?

Spacewalk-data-fsck -v 
File missing:
/var/satellite/redhat/1/3b4/xulrunner/1.9.2.22-1.el5_7/x86_64/3b4a6a5a56ea9f
16015f1daaf77fc7a5/xulrunner-1.9.2.22-1.el5_7.x86_64.rpm

ERROR: 10621 files missing on disk
