I'm pretty sure it was fsck.ext3.  Basically, I had bad hardware and
my machine would randomly crash.  At one crash my partition got badly
corrupted and I got this message.  I've since sent my laptop to repair
and haven't seen any problems since...

I guess if it wasn't fsck.ext3, it might have been the kernel.  Yes,
indeed:

linux-2.6-2.6.14/fs/ext3/super.c:              printk (KERN_ERR "EXT3-fs: group 
descriptors corrupted !\n");
