Filesystem modules are often size-constrained. So we skip the
consistency checks unless they are inherent part of filesystem operation.
If filesystem is corrupted there isn't much we can do other than hope
that boot-related files aren't affected. GRUB itself never writes to fs
metadata so it won't lead to any additional corruption

Stupid question: have you rerun ./autogen.sh ?
