Here's the problem:
* builds prior to about 507 all use the monolithic datastore. This is very
  bad for routing.
* builds 507ish to 513ish have various bugs with the native datastore
  which cause problems on insert
* ALL builds prior to 514 have one particular insert-affecting bug
* We can't increase lastGoodBuild AFTER we have released 0.5 without
  major problems

We cannot block a build only for insertion, because we want inserts and
requests to end up in the same place. So IMHO the correct solution is to
increase lastGoodBuild to 514. This may cause some short-term
disruption, but it should also prevent these bugs from causing network
problems, and we can't do it later without much greater trouble.
