downloaded dogecoin-1.8.1-beta-1 and built it on my server. I get "Wallet corrupted" errors when running, but db_dump doesn't give any errors. I added some debugging output to walletdb.cpp and now get the error code and proof that the entire (new, empty) wallet is read correctly:

yeah, open source for the win and all that, but how could this have ever made it to release? I'll probably figure this out today and get it running, but I found by Googling many others had this error and couldn't find an answer.
