Hi!

I got the following error today:

Then I copied roster.DAT from working DB, repaired it and tried to do
dets:lookup on this key, but it returned empty result.  After that I ran the
following command 3 times and got 3 different results:

(ejabberd@REDACTED)1> mnesia:dirty_read(roster, {"dtim",{"dottedmag","jabber.ru",[]}}).
{badarg,[{erlang,binary_to_term,
                 [<<131,104,10,100,0,6,114,111,115,116,101,114,104,2,107,0,6,109,104,97,109,...>>]},
         {dets_v9,per_set_key,3},
         {dets_v9,eval_work_list,2},
         {dets,update_cache,2},

         {proc_lib,init_p,5}]}

                 {lookup_keys,[{"dtim",{"dottedmag","jabber.ru",[]}}]},
                 {14,'EXIT'}}}

{error,{bad_object,"/opt/jabber/server/ejabberd/src/Mnesia.ejabberd@REDACTED/roster.DAT"}}

After that all requests to roster table return the last error, and after
restarting this error is unreproduceable.

Erlang version is R10B.

Snip from mnesia:info():

roster         : with 412996   records occupying 95840830 bytes on disc
