The reason why you can't mount even though repair suggests you do
might be because of a bug in xfsprogs/libs not a complete corruption
in the filesystem itself.

	It's possible, I guess, but the diagnostics seem pretty coherent.
Running xfs_repair in test mode finds a small but reasonable number of
issues.

Please excuse me if this is a stupid question, but is it possible any of
the apparent issues could be caused by the block device underneath the
filesystem having changed size, so the filesystem's in some sense the
wrong size now?

	I don't know.  It certainly shouldn't.  Xfs certainly supports
growing the file system, and presumably this would be often accomplished by
first growing the underlying device.
