The reason for the silence is because we're waiting for the original
poster to get us some data. We haven't the faintest idea how to
reproduce.

We could speculate, I guess. But my speculation is that the chances
that he's found a genuine bug in our dump feature is low; this thing
has been tested and evolving for 5 years. Occam's razor says that
there's likely some simpler explanation.

If we were getting lots of similar reports like this, we'd be
panicking. But one mysterious report in five years? We're simply
curious at this point, awaiting more data.
