I think the index always worked properly in the past. But of course it would
be hard to tell if that was really true.

Ugh. I have had a couple system crashes recently. I kind of doubt the index
was in the process of being written to, I don't tend to watch Farscape at the
same time as doing development work... But I can't guarantee it.

So you don't think this case is worth doing forensics on?
