[p4] How can this happen?

[Jeff A. Bowles]

This is the moment that you take the journal, the checkpoint, and
the telephone number for Tech Support, the email address for
Tech Support, and put them (and a phone) into the same place at the same
time.

"That should not happen. Either there is a piece of information missing,
or something is amiss."

    -Jeff Bowles

ps. Don't forget that "the type is associated with each revision, so if
some-not-all revisions are binary+l and the most recent ones are not,
it's going to be a bit stranger than it should."
