I think it's not a problem.  I did it (back from beta 44 to 1.53d)
and I see to have no ill effects.  I ran (screaming?) from the beta
after I saw a couple of messages about vanished databases or folders.
But I suspect this problem was peculiar to either operators or
systems. I'm sure Marck can enlighten us further.  I just don't need
vanishing databases -- even though I run pretty rigorous tape
backups.

Best,
