maybe i'm missing something.
all the files i checked were marked deleted in the log.
i think the problem was during database generation,
there was no connection to venti. my patch should
address that. i found it necessary when doing the
history transfer. bad wireless connection.
maybe there's also a problem with applylog, but i didn't
find it.
