If myisamchk ends up deleting every record, that sounds really bad. 
Does it print any diagnostics as it runs through them, or does it run
silently and you end up with an empty table?  All I can think is maybe
the truncate table code is acting up.  Maybe try swapping in "delete *
from table where 1=1", or "drop table / create table"?

Does mysql itself crash (and the table is corrupt on restart), or just
out of the blue start returning 127's?
