 I've lost begginig of the thread, but this is indeed BigInt serial
issue specific to Debian's openssl. CA's certificate serial number is
cause of that. You have two options:
1st. use bigint patches from debian/patches on CVS. But on production
system I'd recomend to test those patches first.

2nd. Perhaps at that step of recovery, database objects were restored
already from the backup, so you just may copy index.txt, crlnumber and
serial from the old installation, as somebody sugested already.

  Best wishes
