  I have no idea what kind of corruption you're referring to, I don't
remember any specific problem raised about this (but check the
changelog as one can't trust my memory for something nearly 3 years
old, and ChangeLog is more detailed than just release notes).
  Provide a reproducer and I may be able to answer, but right now
I don't have a cristal ball, sorry, no idea :-)
