I agree with Neil so (if I'm awake enough) I'll force an fsck by doing: #touch /forcefsck in the root directory of any filesystem you might be worried about, and then reboot. Do this before resuming any emerge, of course, so you don't screw up the fs any more than it already is. (BTW I still use only ext3, so I can't say anything about reiser, ext4, etc.)
