Try: rm -rf /var/dt
You could also find the inode for /var/dt and remove the inode like this:

# ll -i /var/dt
(first column is the inode number)
# cd /var
# find . -inum ### -exec rm {} \;

Well between the fsck and the dd command, it is fixed.  /var/dt is fine and the syslog is clear of messages, even after a reboot or two.  So thanks for both recomendations.   

Is there a way I can select two different posts as "accept as solution?"

No, only the one.  But you can give kudos to each.
