With lock_nolock option the corruption disappears.

But as I've said, I need locking active because I'm sharing the GFS2
partitions among several servers.

Finally, I uncluster the GFS2 partitions and now I'm using EXT3 again in
manual active/pasive mode in the affected servers.

But I really want to get this bug away because when my other servers reach
files over 6GB the bug will appears in these servers too.
