Thank you for your very helpful bugreport.
Care to give me some more information?
What filesystem are you using on /var?
Does the .old database exist in /var/spool/uptimed ?
If yes, does it contain valid data?

This has been said before, it's not a grave bug report as it doesn't
render the software useless (it works perfectly well under "normal"
use conditions, and no, a power failure is *not* a normal use
condition).
