Replying to myself here...

It seems I'm not the only one running into this bug. I did the same as
described in [1] before running into it.

I'd be happy to provide the monotone db in question as requested in
[2]. However, Justin has already provided a copy of a db exposing
the bug in [3].

I'd appreciate any type of feedback from a core developer as this
type of random breakage along with no reaction to bug reports certainly
doesn't speak for using monotone [4].

Note that in contrast to the statement in [4] this isn't restricted
to monotone 0.21. The first time I ran into it was with 0.20.

Thanks,

Rene
