gjournal failing to do its job

I have recreated all file systems, each on its own journal provider. And
gjournal *still* fails to do it job:
On a normal boot, all journal providers come up as "clean". If the
system hangs and has to be force-rebooted, the journal providers report
"consistent" during boot. However, the system still complains that / has
not been unmounted cleanly. While it only complains about /, all other
file systems are actually not clean either.
I can return to a consistent state by running fsck on each file system
and fixing the (numerous) errors it reports. But this surely cannot be
how journaling is supposed to work...
Am I doing something wrong here? I cannot see what. Each file system is
UFS2, created directly on its own gjournal provider and with journaling
flag set.
