  This is strange given the above error.  IF this error is accurate it's a
harbinger of bad values in the DB.  I have fixed this and thought I
checked it in!  Basically I tracked the state of the file pointer and at
somepoint the system twesks it to 'text' mode, and this hoses the DB.

I'll check CVS to see if I got that fix in.  If the fix is in CVS, then
its a new bug!
