The method of corruption is quite crude (but efficient); just flip a
number of bits at random before mounting.

I got a different crash (NULL pointer) now, and I have a reproducible
case with a full disk image (it's only about 11M compressed, no
private/sensitive data). See
http://userweb.kernel.org/~vegard/bugs/20080719-xfs/

The way to reproduce:

    mount -o loop disk.xfs_idestroy_fork.bin /mnt
    rm -rf /mnt/*

And it should give something like this:
