[Wikipedia-l] Possible database corruption

The history of the page
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_mathematics
shows two edits by user Chinju at 16:47, 6 Aug 2003. The next edit was
today (17 Aug).

The revision resulting from the second Chinju edit, as currently
displayed in the history, contains garbage. I believe I looked at the
page between the 6th and 17th of August, and it did not contain garbage.
I expect someone else would have noticed in 11 days, too.

I'm worried that this might be database corruption.
