fsck does not offer to take any action. Even if I pass flags to it that
should have it try to fix things, it just goes"Bad superblock! Oh noes!"
and exits.

I have not compared the superblocks to one another. Might tell me if I'm
looking at the wrong blocks for backups I suppose.

Still weird to me that everything seems to be working fine, if the
superblock is actually bad...
