I fixed several problems with BBDB 3.

Thanks, that was indeed a silly bug. I fixed it different from your
patch that would fail for records without a name. Along the way, I
also rewrote bbdb-check-type which was way too complicated.
Please check that now this works as expected.

Thank you, this was a bad bug which shows up only with released
versions of GNU Emacs. This should be fixed now. Also, the trunk
now includes a command bbdb-fix-records to fix this problem.
(Maybe, one day I'll have to extend this command to fix other
problems, too.)
