mod6: and its worthwhile to point out the db locks thing is separate
mod6: different patch though
mod6: Sorry that it's confusing and not super easy to follow, just hoping to make your cool historical timeline a bit more accurate. Salud!
mod6: here's the original posting of that: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2014-December/000024.html
mod6: it was this patch that overcame that issue: bitcoin-v0_5_3-db_config.6.vpatch
mod6: And this statement is not accurate: ``With the “rm_checkpoints” patch, the wedge issue at Block 252450 was overcome.''
punkman: isn't verifyall equivalent to no checkpoints?
