I don't have full backups of the server but incremental of different days,
all giving the same picture.

I tested a client, too. But I canceled it because it would have take quite a
few days.

The first report is from a version older than 1.38.11 and after 28Jun06.

I kept the config files byte by byte when I was downgrading. For both tests
I created a new database even with the same script of version 1.38.11.

There no extraordinary activities on that machine.
