I had the same problem. Verified on x86 with 32 or 64 bits on ext3, jfs, xfs. I had seriuous file corruption on many machines. The only workaround is: 1) update only libc6; 2) reboot from a live cd to fix the filesystem; 3) reboot from the hd; 4) reinstall all the packages; 5) update the the system. It's a dangerous bug!
