The reason is here:
% tar xvzf ~ftp/pub/CPAN/authors/id/S/SB/SBECK/DateManip-5.38.tar.gz
DateManip-5.38/
DateManip-5.38/.#Manip.pm
[...]
% ls -la DateManip-5.38/
total 412
drwxr-xr-x 3 k k 4096 May 23 17:26 ./
lrwxrwxrwx 1 k k 38 Jun 21 21:42 .#Manip.pm ->

This symlink caused an error on open() that was not anticipated by the
job and it died miserably. I've now made the cronjob more forgiving in
such a case and rescheduled the indexer on it. Will be fixed within an
hour.
