I can't install apport on the original system where this problem was
observed (Precise + LTS kernel) but I have reproduced it on a Raring
install with 3.8.0-31-generic and submitted the apport information from
that environment.

Title:
  Ubuntu-lts-3.8.0 kernels corrupt ext[234] filesystems with 1k block
  size in Xen guests

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  We observed a problem with a Postfix database file created by postmap becoming corrupted in a Xen guest when the file was on an ext4 filesystem with a 1kb block size.  This was reported to the linux-ext4 list in http://marc.info/?t=138018028300003&r=1&w=2.  The subsequent investigation identified the git commit 7b2b160da7661bb2ade3f924b1bd3e3084e53341 as solving the problem.  We have applied this on top of tag Ubuntu-lts-3.8.0-13.22 and confirmed that it resolves the problem we are seeing.
