Hm. That's not ideal - get_index should be a read-only operation, but
you can't prevent it from creating the database. And SQLite doesn't
give you a distinctive error for 'table does not exist', so you can't
decide to create the table if the query fails.

I suppose it's probably best to leave it as-is then: have an explicit
call to initialise the mergeinfo index, and allow the 'get' and 'set'
functions to fail until that's been done.
