This could be slightly off-topic, but isn't data corruption security related? SuSE 8.1 was delivered with e2fsprogs-1.28, which has a "fencepost error" (???) which could cause directory corruption.
According to the maintainer of our e2fsprogs package, this referes to the htree (hash tree) stuff in e2fsprogs which is *not* enabled in SuSEs version of e2fsprogs.
