Applied, thanks for the patch. --verifydb /was/ working the last I
checked but... Should add a testcase for it (it's such an oddball case
that it tends to break by sneezing at it), or actually the more
attractive option would be kicking the rather useless lowlevel BDB
verify out and replace it with something that actually does a meaningful
sanity-check of the rpmdb (index validity etc).
