Wow -- hadn't known that!  Here's what it shows:
Mar 11 09:03:05 nebula kernel: XFS: SB sanity check 2 failed
Mar 11 09:03:05 nebula kernel: XFS: SB validate failed

I found this link on Google:

So, as a pre-emptive strike, here's the output of 
"xfs_db -c sb -c p /dev/sda1":

There's absolutely -no- data on this drive, so I'll gladly do whatever
you ask me to.  In desperation, prior to my most recent attempt to mkfs
it, I did a "dd if=/dev/zero of=/sda bs=1024 count=1024", and it still
failed in exactly the same manner, so I don't think it's anything in the
partition table or the like...

Thanks much,
