cvt_cyrusdb flat to skiplist fails

[Bernhard Reiter]

I have a strange behaviour here:

annotations.db is in the skiplist format.
Now cvt_cyrusdb seems to fail a simple back and forth conversion test
to flat and back. How can that be?

cvt_cyrusdb /tmp/annotations.db skiplist /tmp/x flat
Converting from /tmp/annotations.db (skiplist) to /tmp/x (flat)

Converting from /tmp/x (flat) to /tmp/y (skiplist)
Warning: apparently empty database converted.

Inspection with an editor shows that 
annotaions.db and x contain entries and y does not.

Is this a bug?

Background: I tried to test skiplist.py
from http://oss.netfarm.it/python-cyrus.php for a recovery situation.
It produces a great flat file, but cvt_cyrusdb does not grok it.
