Applejack doesn't run fsck from Open Firmware, but from single-user mode, and the results of running fsck and Disk Utility are indistinguishable, because what DU is doing is running fsck under the GUI. Permissions repair will do nothing whatsoever for this issue, since that applies to executable files only. Only things listed in /Library/Reciepts will ever figure into Permissions repair.
