Couldn't say. Those two were on my mind because the reporters had
allowed me to troll through their table and index files and verify
that there were indeed multiple index pointers to the same table row,
and yet the index itself did not show any indication of corruption.
I had noticed the "clumping" pattern of the doubly-linked rows in
both cases, but hadn't found an explanation.
