Well the interesting thing about that is that although the bad table was
originally discovered in a DB restored from a snapshot, I subsequently
discovered it in the real-time clone of the primary from which the backups
are made. So somehow the clone's table became corrupted. The same table was
not corrupt on the primary, but I have discovered an error on the primary
-- it's in the thread I posted today. These events seem correlated in time,
I'll have to mine the logs some more.
