Looks like version one directories, recently ripped out of Linux...

Try an older kernel... can't recall exactly when this changed, but you 
can probably find it in the archives, search "dirv1" I think.

Linux can't replay irix logs, you could zero out the log with xfs_repair 
-L, or, less destructively, mount with -o ro,norecovery and see what you 
can get.
