Base is the available lowest number for that index.
This is useful if adding overview data is for under
low number.  It should be less than low.

Can you put trace lines like:

if (ge->low > ge->base) {syslog(L_ERROR, "tradindexed: %d ge->low(%d) > ge->base(%d)", __LINE__, ge->low, ge->base); abort();}

That line can be inserted where ge->low or ge->base
is changed.  And you'll see how that problem comes.
