(I've let it sit for several minutes in case the OS was still working on the shutdown behind the scenes, but I'm pretty sure it's just hung.)
Perhaps this is preventing the sd card from being properly unmounted?

Nope. Even when the shutdown worked and didn't cause the phone to hang (it used to), it'd still do the same thing. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that all those FSCK files that get dumped are not from the Android file system at all, but are from the DOSFSCK that runs before it loads the linux images. No way I know of to turn them off without getting down into the boot files -- and it just doesn't seem worth it to avoid having to delete a few files every once in a while, since I don't think they're doing any harm.
