Forget that.  I trashed my /usr (over 20000 files were put in 
lost+found and I got all sorts of funny (?) things going on with 
fsck), but it looks like it was a hardware problem.  Still, a bit 
nasty considering I hadn't got softupdates or an async filesystem :-(

I'll try enabling ata after I've rebuilt the machine.
