I can't reproduce it either. Going nuts here, don't let this one hold you back. I will try to run some sql updates to bring my lost blogs back, at this point all I can prove is that Roller did in fact corrupt them, I can't document a path to reproduce it.
The only thing I can think of is that when it happened my site was running on a backup server with only 256Mb RAM, sucking air. I now have 760Mb, virtually no memory swapping, faster and more reliable performance. I suppose it is possible that MySQL 5 dropped data because Roller timed out waiting for it, or some other similar thing.
