What NTFS-3G does is actually detects and reports that something has corrupted two files. The "2.6.28-11 causes massive data corruption with ICH8/ICH9 on 64 bits installations" bug is indeed a very good candidate to be the real culprit.

Data and file system corruptions almost exclusively origin from a hardware, device driver, kernel problem or user problem (e.g. unsafe detach of a hardware). NTFS-3G has extensive and redundant data integrity and consistency checking and often finds and reports them.

Changed in ntfs-3g (Ubuntu):
