Thanks.

Is there something we can test in the meantime to get our filesystem
back? I was thinking of commenting out the zero_log() part of xfs_repair
to get it to run the rest of the process. Is that safe? Will the
filesystem mount afterwards?

Or is there a different (better) way to get the repair going?

Also; if we can work-around this problem, is there some data we should
extract from the filesystem first if you wish to debug the problem
later? We already sent the superblock, but if there are other data that
might be useful we'll copy that off before doing anything to the
filesystem.
