Re: Core dump from cyrusdb_skiplist.c

Yeah, you've got a corrupted skiplist file.  There are a variety
of reasons why this could be the case, but most of all, the
skiplist library in 2.3.7 is pretty buggy.  Well, no more buggy
than it had been for ages, but I got a LOT of fixes added since
then.

Probably the best skiplist library in current use is 2.3.11.  2.3.12
is theoretically better, but it actually exposes a bug that just
silently worked in 2.3.11.

Hopefully, if Wes and Ken are happy that the locking refactor is
tested enough, there will be a 2.3.13 soonish with a "perfect"
skiplist library.

Meanwhile - that doesn't fix your problem!  How attached are you
to the data in the skiplist file?  It's your annotations DB.  Do you have
a recent backup before it got corrupted?  It's sometimes hard to tell.

I can probably repair it for you, but I haven't got a good working
automated tool for it.  I'd be going in and fiddling the bits by hand!

Bron.
