Two patches which fix a problem reported by several people in the past,

but only fixed now because no one gave enough material for debugging.
 
 Anyway, these fix the problem that sometimes after a power cut the
 file-system is not mountable with the following symptom:
 
 	grab_empty_leb: could not find an empty LEB
 
 The fixes make the file-system mountable again.
