We don't know the cause, so that's hard to answer.  So far it seems that ext3 
--> ext4 conversions are safe. Kind of makes sense, since the on-disk system 
is a bit different.   As to whether created-by-Karmic or in-use-by-Karmic is 
the trouble here, we don't know yet.  I think only 3 people so far have hit 
this, and we all were running unstable for development reasons, so we had 
created-by-Karmic filesystems.  It's going to take more people reproducing it 
to find out if created-by-Jaunty-and-used-in-Karmic is problematic as well.
