It seems this issue is indeed not fixed yet. This morning, I had a folder downloading over and over again, with wrong message count (19 messages were in and about 7 were to be downloaded according to the activity window). I have, previously, for several times compacted, downloaded and repaired that folder, and also have deleted all sbd and msf files belonging to it, to no avail. Had to repair the folder again today to make the download stop.
