First thing that comes to mind is the fact that 2.6.18 is about 3 years old.
I'm not familiar with CentOS patching policies, but even if you've received
and applied some XFS patches, they'd still probably be rather old.

If CentOS 5.5 doesn't have a much newer kernel package available, say 2.6.30
or later, if I were you, I'd grab the kernel source from kernel.org and roll
your own 2.6.33.6 or 2.6.34.1.
