Well indeed it wasn't 3.7.X that created the database originally. But it was always 3.7.2 that made the INSERTS/UPDATES that lead to the state in which the database couldn't be backed up anymore. So what do you mean in fact: 3.7.X maybe can't handle database structures created with older versions?!
Even after doing a vacuum which fixed the bug I had the same errors again on the machines with 3.7.2 after a few days (after other INSERTS/UPDATES). About the thing I should test: There is no command called ".export" it seems?! But I think that I don't even have to test the thing you propose, as it will work almost for sure => like already stated several times one little tiny tiny tiny change already fixes the error. As an .export/.import will change some bits for sure this will already change the situation!
