I can't see anything missing there from the reproduction steps.

Was ad0s1g also ok? The slight differences I did here where
the following but I cant seem them being significant:
1. dump -a0uL -C 32 -f /nfs/usr.dmp /usr
2. restore rf usr.dmp
3. fstab entry: /nfs/usr -maproot=root testbox

Other differences which spring to mind:
1. machines where both using areca controllers on RAID6 arrays.
2. This was a real machine and not a VM

One other thing of note when I first repaired this I booted from
Install Disk #1 and used the same procedure for the sysinstall
part from fixit and no corruption occured.

As mentioned before I've got two more of these machines coming
in over the next few weeks so I'll look at reproducing it
on them.
