Ah, OK. A bit unexpected, but if I repeat the process using the '-o'
option w/ xfs_metadump, the loopback mounted fs now looks as expected:
prompt# ls -F /mnt
backup/ data/ pvfs2-server.log pvfs2-server.log.0 pvfs2-server.log-crashed
I'll run xfs_repair -L on the real filesystem now.
Many thanks for the help!
