To warm up the old thread, I did this now:

* make metadump
* mount it
* remove unneeded files/dirs
This already produced lots of errors, where files/dirs couldn't be 
deleted. I made a metadump of this again, it's on 
http://zmi.at/xfs.metadump-brokenonly.bz2

Then I tried with v3.0.1:
# xfs_repair xfs.img 
Phase 1 - find and verify superblock...

So again patch dinode.c:2241 ASSERT away:
# xfs_repair xfs.img
(about 550KB output, see http://zmi.at/xfs_repair.txt )
corrupt dinode 8326467385, extent total = 1, nblocks = 0.  This is a 
bug.
Please capture the filesystem metadata with xfs_metadump and
report it to xfs at oss.sgi.com.
cache_node_purge: refcount was 1, not zero (node=0x7f90c4de34e0)

fatal error -- couldn't map inode 8326467385, err = 117

Now, should I PANIC? Doesn't all seem to be nice...
I mounted this image, made "rm -r *" so all files/dirs which were good 
were deleted. There are still a lot in there which can't be deleted. Can 
someone help me fix it please?
I made another metadump image, it's on 
http://zmi.at/xfs.metadump-brokenonly2.bz2
