Subject:   fsck errors on a running system that disappear in single-user mode

I ran fsck on a running system (check only, no changes), and it turned
up some inconsistencies.  So I rebooted into single-user mode and ran it
again, but then everything checked out fine.  I presume this is because
fsck is looking at filesystems that are changing right in front of its
eyes on a running system, which leads to inconsistencies that really
don't mean anything ... right?
