  The faulty sectors are given by the INFO FIELD number? Correct?

I think so, but writing them is very tricky; you'll have to read them
and then write them back, and you should have the fs mounted read only
when you do this.

It would be cool to have a program to read every sector and rewrite it
on a raw partition to freshen up bits on disks.

But my experience is that once you see any sign of flakiness the right
thing to do is to get a new disk and move your bits over before it is
too late.
