If the system had been up, I would have suggested that the vnode entry
for the covered directory have been corrupted somehow but that
wouldn't have survived a reboot.  I don't suppose you tried doing an
ls on the directory or creating a file in it or fscking the filesystem
before deleting it.

Do you happen to know if the directories were re-created with the same
inode number?  Maybe you hit a bug that depends on the inode or block
number of the directory.
