Thanks, Jamie. This isn't release-critical in dpkg for intrepid any more, although I'd still like to figure out why this broke in the first place; on reconsideration I'm not really sure that the fix in Debian to fix up the database on reload would have helped here, and the problem is that the internal state was wrong in the first place.
