When there is no existing data/index/ directory, Solr creates a new
index/ directory at the beginning of loading the core, locks it, but
does not flush out an empty index. Here's the problem: when the core
fails while being loaded (in this case because the core configuration
was bogus) it left the index/ directory locked. It did not flush out
the new empty index (just the segment* files).
So, if a core has no index, and fails during loading, it should either
write out an empty index as it intended to, or remove the half-built
data/index/ directory. Or just not make the empty index until loading
completes?
