swap_free: Bad swap offset entry

I run a 2.4.17 system with high filesystem load and experience the
following problem:

after running some hours with ext2 I got a lot of these messages:
Apr 24 22:19:00 linux kernel: swap_free: Bad swap offset entry 04000000

if I do a swapoff (swap is at /dev/hda6) they turn to:
Apr 24 22:20:29 linux kernel: swap_free: Unused swap file entry 04000000

..and get back to "Bad swap offset entry" if I do the swapon again

Before that I run the machine with ext3 where even worse things happened.
I got a lot of these messages before the machine hangs some hours later:
