Do env_sync() and commit() survive the test program from ITS#7886? It creates a datafile which ends before mm_last_pg+1.
That would probably crash on Windows, I'll check it later. Annoying that Windows doesn't just flush whatever exists and move on.
Could add a filesize check to env_open and fail if last_pgno doesn't match.
Not enough if there are several writer processes. For a growing file, the check would have to go in mdb_txn_begin().
I'm not too fussed about it, you have to be deliberately malicious to create this condition. You get a Bus Error or a SEGV - that's a lot safer than tamely returning an error code that the caller could ignore.
Not malicious. Omit some commits like slapadd -q does, and it can happen naturally. Maybe slapadd -q can do just that with large IDLs.
I think MDB_meta and MDB_txn need "last written page" maintained by mdb_page_flush(). Can VL32 wait for MDB_DATA_VERSION > 1?
