@Martin Pitt

       Can this fix to the heuristics be backported to 9.10 Karmic via

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-disk-utility

palimpsest complains, that the disk has many bad sectors. palimpsest thinks, that SMART value 5 "Reallocated Sector Count" fails (screenshot attached). smartctl reports "  5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct   0x0033   097   097   010    Pre-fail  Always       -       117" (full log attached) which seems to be ok. This error appears on a different system, too.
