Unless you can demonstrate some other systematic effect (e.g. always
truncated at the same size), it looks like you have some other kind of
failing hardware that is silently corrupting the data during writing
or reading from disk.
You are probably right. I am going to upgrade to 6.x and see
if that helps - it may not but I have to upgrade one day anyway.
It will be interesting to see if the problem follows me.
I would think that over first. Unless the problem you have is noted as
fixed in a later version, an upgrade for upgrade's sake is not the right
course of action.
If you upgrade and the problem persists, you won't know what the problem
was. So far I haven't heard anyone who thinks it is a problem with the
distribution.
If you upgrade and the problem goes away, you still don't know what the
problem was. If the problem returns a week, a month, a year down the
road you are right back where you are now.
Just my two cents worth.

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?
Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
