I just realized that db_set_value, db_set_data, db_set_num_values and
db_merge_data do not check for num_values == 0. With such a parameter the
ODB can become corrupted, since zero length ODB entries are not allowed. I

assert() is actually a macro which expands to zero if NDEBUG is defined. I

is a "cleanup" in ODBEdit which removes these open records. I have soem code
in cm_watchdog(), which should take care of that. If a client is dead, it

As Konstantin pointed out correctly, the db_create_record() call is pretty
heavy since it copies whole structures around the ODB. Therefore, it
should not used frequently. It might be that several problems are caused
