yes the jdbm changes made this more frequent because there is a code
which  does serialization/deserialization to do deep copy. However, I
removed that code and the same issue happens  at a later stage if it
happens that we need to read the B+ page from disk and thus
deserialize it. That caused the same kind of failure for me.
