Since this is a jffs2 core file i don't want to add eCos patches to
it. You need to get the jffs2 people to acknowledge the bug and fix it
in their repository.

Try again on the jffs2 mailling list. Give them enough details that
they can try to reproduce the problems on Linux. Explain what you
think is wrong and why your fix fixes it.
