The fact that the bug has been around for a long time doesn't mean we
shouldn't take it seriously.

IMO any kind of corruption (heap or index) should be prioritized.
There's also been comments about maybe this being the cause of old
reports about index corruption.

I ask myself if it's a good idea to make a point release with a know
corruption bug in it.
