It reports that it's corrupt when I attempt to save a valid XML db to MySQL
and in fact it is, as verfied through the MySQL workbench.
However, I just downloaded 2.6.17 source from the GC web site and it works
perfectly!
Somehow git cloning 2.6.99 is not the right thing to do.
Oops.
Thank you, though I was looking forward to some down and dirty source code and
API troubleshooting.

What happens if you save to a mysql db of a different name (or delete
the current db first)?
