Steve's message is true, name corruption is possible, and namebase compaction
is not working as expected. The latest git version is writing namebases not 
conform to the .si4 format. There is a way to fix such a database written with 
latest git version, use

  scidt -N <database>

and the new namebase will be in .si4 format again. It's probably a good
idea to make a backup before fixing the database.

I cannot understand this, he is definitively not harming the project. I wrote 
you a message about the problems with the namebase proven by two
examples (also confirmed in tests) many weeks ago, and in a reply you've
agreed with my analysis.
