We also experienced a few failures while installing a new 3.6.1 and
importing an sql dump from the production 3.2:
[Thu Dec 15 13:59:43 2011] updatedatabase.pl: DBD::mysql::db do failed:
Duplicate entry 'maxItemsInSearchResults' for key 'PRIMARY' at
/usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl
line 3955.
[Thu Dec 15 13:59:43 2011] updatedatabase.pl: DBD::mysql::db do
failed: Duplicate column name 'privacy' at
/usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl
line 3997.

line 3998.
A quick verification showed no loss of functionality, but I haven't yet had
time to look at what "privacy" means|does.

I encountered exactly those same errors on my Koha 3.6.1. It seems the
errors only appear when you upgrade the db from a previous version (3.2,
in my case) of Koha to 3.6.
I also got these errors when Koha is updating the database through the web
installer:

Chris C.(Koha's developer) said they are safe to ignore,
though.(http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/3-4-4-gt-3-6-1-upgrade-td5068580.html)
And Kyle Hall(Koha Virtual Appliance's creator) has these to say about
them: "I think it's probably safe to ignore those errors. The script is
attempting to create fields that are already in the tables, so I doubt you
will see any problems."
