Indeed, this issue is fixed. The new versioning code works nicely. Thanks.

I hit this issue as well. Until now I had ignored it as I thought is was a 
side-effect of other problems (like having the sqlite3 file on a cifs mounted 
share), but I saw it now as well with a file stored on nfs, which never caused 
issues before.
I just looked at Christoph's path now (from bug 640061 [1]). It looks good in 
concept, though I'd move the two changes to different places in the code. I'm 
now running a test build to see if it works ok.
