If it's possible your checkout was taken between the 12th and the 16th of January, then all of this makes sense because there was a bug in the CategoryWorker class during that time. If that is the case then you should make the changes listed here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=612431 (click on the "text changed" link)
