Hm, that issue seemed like a bigger one, and he said it was working
fine using the same database on a normal partition instead of a
loopback device.
And that running fsck on the loopback device fixed the problem.
So like Dan said, it looked more like a filesystem issue, and it's not
clear pacman made anything wrong in that case.

But for the error I'm describing, it's clearly pacman which is in
fault, and by the way, this error appeared in a bug you reported :)
(but for a different issue : wrong permission on /tmp) :
