inn 2.3.2 and up weirdness

Hi,

I'm having trouble with INN's overview stuff -- The system is running 
RedHat 7.2, and have tested with various versions of inn, including 
2.3.2, 2.3.3, and both recent current & stable snapshots.  I've even
tried all three overview storage methods.

Running inn (or in some cases, overchan when rebuilding history) ellicit 
a stack trace similar to the one below.  It seems that the value for 
loc.recno is "insane", and indexing way outside of the GROUPentries array:
(gdb) print loc.recno
$1 = 856202526

Any ideas would be helpful!
