Shouldn't/wouldn't the filesystem complain first?  There is a lot of
activity on the filesystem, mysql is just a tiny part of it.

I really have no reason to suspect the hardware.  It's new, but it's
been running in "burn-in" mode for about a month (although not with
much load, mostly idling).  I might as well suspect the mysql build and
try upgrading to a newer one.
