[Opensim-dev] Older region databases incompatible with the latest SVN

[Diva Canto]

Yes, I've seen this too. In fact, one of our regions in OSGrid is still 
suffering from it.
I'm not sure where the bug is, except that it happened around the 3rd 
week of January.
We've been able to get around it by removing the local OpenSim.db, and 
loading all the objects from backups we had (in xml or oar format, not 
sure which).
