If you have a corrupt tuple within an otherwise good block then you
can try deleting that tuple, but if the block header is corrupt
then you have no way of addressing any of that block's tuples.
Errors implying a bad tuple include "missing chunk number" and
"invalid memory alloc request size"; but "invalid page header in
block" means the block itself is bad.
