Personally I like sudo -u cyrus cyr_dbtool $file skiplist show > /dev/null

This does a "foreach" over the entire file which should find any issues.  If
there was an exposed way to run "myconsistent" on the file that would be nicer
but the cyrus DB interface doesn't expose all the internals and I've been loath
to fiddle with it since there are a few different DB modules and I'd have to
change all of them.

Of course if you can shut the cyrus instance down you could probably just
delete that file.

Bron.

P.S. I've attached another external tool that can find some interesting things.
It needs the attached module to be in your perl lib somewhere too.
