I encountered this bug today while running istat on a fully updated Ubuntu Gutsy x86 machine. I was using the sleuthkit binaries from Gutsy's repositories (v2.08).

Running istat (istat <device> <inode #>) on any inode (even for a file that should fit inside one or two blocks) results in a list of directed blocks that continues to increment indefinitely from the starting directed block number.

I was using both a 250GB ext3 physical device, and a dd image of a 50GB ext3 device, both with the same result.

I moved the image to an x86 machine running Gentoo, sleuthkit v2.09, and istat output was correct.
