I don't know for these particular versions, however in the past
I've confirmed that a later version of xfs_repair performed way better
(salvaged more files from lost+found, in particular).

At some point in the distant past, some versions of xfs_repair were
buggy and would happily throw away TB of perfectly sane data... Ih ad
this very problem once on Christmas eve in 2005 IIRC :/
