wasp, thanks for this bug report, and sorry we didn't get to it until now. There have been two code changes to address DatabaseCorruptError problems, one in April 2011 (r1702) and one in September 2011 (r2331). There have been no DatabaseCorruptError bug reports since then, so it's likely this bug has been fixed. If you experience a similar problem in future, please report it as a separate bug. Thanks!
