I'm not sure. I'm not able to replicate either failure. According to
Holger, his failure happens after a clean shutdown. Alexey's happens
after a crash/forced power down. So they could possibly be two
separate failures --- although obviously I hope not!

However, Alexey has been posting his failure information in bug
#14354, so we might as well close #14370. What I really need is hints
about how to replicate the failure.
