Have you tried fsck without the -p flag?

I don't know if fixit mode from the CDROM
would do any good on gjournal, though I
don't see why the module couldn't be loaded
if it existed there.  As a last resort you might
be able to blow the journal away without
mangling your / (I will play with gjournal some
to-night, perhaps).
