The lack of response is more to do with being incredibly busy on Irix
stuff at the moment. If a filesystem gets shutdown due to detecting
internal memory corruption, on disk corruption, or I/O errors accessing
the device, then pretty much any system call which accesses the 
filesystem will get back EFSCORRUPTED (990).
