In fact, if I just try and load it again I reproduce the problem.
The situation is similar to http://bugzilla.bioperl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2092

And I have a tentative fix that extends Brian's fix there. Committed to 
HEAD only atm. I don't know anything about bioperl-db and don't have the 
faintest clue why this is happening, nor the time to figure it out. Can 
someone please have a proper look at this and decide if my fix is sane?

All I can say is the the test suites for bioperl-live and bioperl-db 
continue to pass, but that isn't really saying much.


PS. having used load_seqdatabase.pl to load a sequence, how do I remove 
it afterwards?
