Is there anything that can be done to 'fix' this?  Under 4.x, using 
unionfs (and don't respond if your only answer is "its broken"), if it 
crashes, fsck finds a whack of the above ...

Now, I think I understand the *why* for the error ... union creates a 
'mirror' of the file system, especially where a du/find is concerned, and 
teh ZLDs are 'end nodes' that have no files under them ... but is there a 
better way that fsck can handle those?  Its almost as if it doesn't know 
what to do with them, so has to remove them all ...
