Absolutely. My comment when reopening was intended to suggest we should add a 
*detection* of this error, not necessarily fixing it. But currently an 
increasing number of users "detect" this error by observing their data loss, 
which is bad. Instead, we should add some code to ourselves to detect this 
potential error at run-time (because libdbi can change by package managers at 
will).
