Seems to have been fixed by itself by changing from IBMs JRE to Suns.
Weird.

This error message doesn't make much sense to me; a long should be quite
sufficient to hold the values, and the BytesWritable keys don't change.
Any ideas as to what could be wrong or how I can debug this to locate
the problem?
Thanks,
