I just looked into /tmp, which is tmpfs here, and found something rather 
bizarre - I replaced some files with "(...)":

# ls -l /tmp
ls: cannot access /tmp/temp-qar�hest.html: No such file or directory
total 13984
drwxrwxr-x 3 tch  tch      100 2008-01-11 00:11 1/
drwx------ 2 tch  tch       60 2008-01-10 09:00 gpg-gcUuf7/
(...)
-????????? ? ?    ?          ?                ? temp-qar�hest.html


# ls /tmp/temp-qar�hest.html
ls: cannot access /tmp/temp-qar�hest.html: No such file or directory

# mount
(...)
none on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,size=2G)


I'm unable to view or remove that file. Like if it was some 
borked/disconnected network filesystem. But it's tmpfs!

Other than that, the system is stable, there were no syslog or dmesg 
entries.

All that with 2.6.23.12.

Ideas?
