Is there any value in discussing this issue in keeping this broken
filesystem available for debugging purposes?  I would like at this point
to destroy the filesystem and start my restores, but if it'd be helpful
to try to get information from the existing fs I can keep it around a
while longer.  (I do still have whatever fsck logs that I saved, and can
make them available whether I destroy the fs or not.)
