Kernel 2.6.32.7-1/mkinitcpio update issue - filesystem/ext3 error

Question

Hi,
Earlier my desktop (after a week uptime) didn't boot anymore. It got the "Reboot required" error at filesystem check (the rc.sysinit script gives this when fsck returns exit status 2).
I tried several things, made sure from a live that the partitions were all clean, yet nothing helped. Then i noticed i wasn't all up to date and made a pacman -Su (after refreshing the list) and at the kernel26 upgrade it said 'SUCCESS' but it gave a small error message during it:
:: Parsing hook [autodetect]
/lib/initcpio/install/autodetect: Zeile 17: filesystem:ext3:1.0: Kommando nicht gefunden.
(Sorry in German but it really is just "line 17" and "command not found").
The Message only appeared in the normal kernel, during building the fallback it didn't say anything.
I had done the same updates a day before on my netbook and there i can't remember any error message and it also boots just fine.
As long as i disable automatic fsck at boot in the fstab the system boots fine.
I'm too tired right now to try any more things, i need sleep. I'd appreciate some help in this, however it's not too urgent, as i can boot and use the system without automatic filesystem check at boot-time.

EDIT:
Forgot to add the filesystems and autodetect files from the directory mentioned in the error message:
/lib/initcpio/install/filesystems:
# vim: set ft=sh:
install ()
MODULES=" $(checked_modules '/kernel/fs' | grep -v "nls") $(checked_modules '/kernel/fs/nls/nls_cp437')"

This hook adds filesystems modules to the image. If you would like to
minimize the modules installed in the image, add the autodetect hook too.

This hook shrinks your initramdisk to a smaller size
by autodetecting your needed modules. Be sure to verify
included modules are correct and none are missing.
This hook must be run before other subsystem hooks in
order to take advantage of auto-detection. Any hooks
placed before 'autodetect' will be installed in full.

If I'm counting right it's complaining about the last quoted line, correct?
Try on your command line, what happens when you do:
for blkdev in $(find /dev -type b | grep -v -e /dev/loop -e /dev/ram -e /dev/fd); do
eval $(sudo /sbin/blkid -o udev -p "$blkdev")
[ "${ID_FS_USAGE}" = "filesystem" ] && echo "$ID_FS_TYPE"
done
