Lachlan,

Question:

What is your wordlist_page_size set to?  The htdig default is zero, and
the BDB default of 8K (in most situations) is then used.

Altough the BDB max page size is 64K, we can't use that yet as a result of
a multiplication bug in mp_cmpr I haven't tracked down yet.

I use this as my default:

wordlist_page_size:    32768

Larger pages are usually more efficient, especially since here we pay the
overhead of deflating each page individually before returning the data.

If your bug is caused by page overflow as I suspect, then this change will
at least push the bug 'away' so that you may have to index several orders
of magnitude more than 50,000 pages to see the bug.  We've got all kinds
of problems if we want to try and index 5 Million+ pages.

I could be wrong, but I'd be interested to see if it makes the problem go
away.

Thanks!
