There has been at least one more recent posting to exim-dev, and I don't
think the server has been down. I haven't a clue why you should see
that; it sounds as if the hints data got corrupted in some way. If it
happens again, one thing to do would be to run exim_dumpdb on the retry
hints data to see what it has got in there.
