Comment(by garycmartin):

 Replying to [comment:2 sascha_silbe]:
 > Might be another occurance of #1407? Do you still have my patch applied?

 No,it was  wiped when I moved to 0.87.7

 > In any case, a full copy of shell.log and datastore.log (again heads up
 for #1807) would be quite useful.

 Sorry not available, both over written when I rebooted trying to test the
 bug when it was first encountered.

 > We should make Sugar more robust in cases of metadata corruption, but
 I'd also like to find out what caused the corruptions.

 +1. I think I first saw the blank entries after the VM collapsed a few
 times while trying to use several instances of sugar at once (for
 collaboration testing). This is likely similar to a hard power off for
 real hardware, or a USB stick being pulled before synch.
