So they forgot to turn logging on on the ufs partitions on  a remote
and unreliable Solaris box?

It doesn't need to be configured in a way it needs to fsck.  If you're
using hardware RAID or MD it might not be worth bothering with logging
but if your hardware is unreliable or lacking in redundancy, it's just
a mount option...
