Can somebody with better knowledge of the pacman DBs take a look at this please?

I've looked at the mirrors - all the ones he says are broken have a patch dir in the core.db.tar.gz file - I'm not sure what else to look for here.
I took a glance, and I see nothing wrong there. Pacman doesn't do anything fancy besides extracting the DB files. Seems like an odd edge case, possibly user error. I say forget about it, it's resolved. If we get another report, we can look into it more, unless, Dan, you think this is a potential pacman issue, but I don't see how it could break on DB extraction
