does your code fork?
Ooo. That sounds like the voice of experience speaking. :-)
I should add forking to the documented list of ways to corrupt your database file.
i never __actually__ corrupted anything by forking - but this is because my child process never did anything with the db handle. i did verify that forking causes silly names on NFS though and could imagine many other 'not good' (tm) scenarios.
