Paul, and others, this is being actively looked into. There are a number
of bugs in the shutdown process, some of which are mentioned above.

Please also, temper the "corrupts your files" language. Orphaned inodes
from already deleted files are not exactly corrupted files. Yes this
issue is critical because it is preventing one of the critical steps of
shutdown from completing correctly, and forcing a filesystem check on
reboot. But as of yet, nobody has shown actual corruption due to this
bug (though other similar bugs which prevent unmounting filesystems may
in fact cause that).
