Is it happening on the same machines? If so, perhaps a daemon to monitor those files and then scream and shout when one changes. Might help track down what's going on at the time. (Yeah, that does sound like saying 'inotify' but with more words...)

No, it's all different kinds of machines, at different times, on different files. So far, there's no rhyme or reason to the corruptions that I can tell. We're trying to instrument things to collect more data when these failures do occur.
