The bad status messages continue for the rest of the /u directory.
The only command which seems to be bothered at all with the /u
directory is find.  I can cd, ls, od ., anything.  All the files
are there and intact.  The only reason this error was discovered
is that the Tape Backup software gave the same errors during the
"Checking the file systems" phase of the "Complete Backup".

I did an od -cx /u and the output looked somewhat reasonable for a
directory.  There's plenty of space left on the disk.  I tried
rebooting.  It seems like permissions, but I'm root.

This all started after we brought the machine back from ATT for a
new power supply |-)
