beagle losing indexes?

[Aviram Jenik <aviram beyondsecurity com>]

Up until the latest version, beagle has been working fairly well for me, 
indexing and searching close to 50,000 emails.

I then upgraded to 0.2.9 and strange things started to happen, like emails not 
showing up in the search. I removed the indexing files (by deleting 
~/.beagle) and restarted beagle, but the index count remained low.

Then I repeated the clean-up (deleted the .beagle dir and restarted beagle) 
and watched the indexing more closely:

$ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail
Name: KMail
Count: 16082
Indexing: True

$ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail
Name: KMail
Count: 17539
Indexing: True

$ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail
Name: KMail
Count: 9083
Indexing: True    


Notice how the index count drops.

Nothing was changed between the 2nd and 3rd beagle-index-info calls. In fact, 
I was away from my computer. At this point beagled-helper is at 100% CPU, but 
the index count remains static.
