It seems to be coming from both the flint and quartz backends.  I  
switched from flint to quartz and partly rebuild the database from  
scratch.  The error persists:

Exception: REMOTE:Error reading block 184743170: got end of file at  
Search.pm line 281.
Exception: REMOTE:Error reading block 4050387271: File too large at  
Search.pm line 281.
Exception: REMOTE:Error reading block 2298544404: File too large at  
Search.pm line 281.
Exception: REMOTE:Error reading block 4279173661: File too large at  
Search.pm line 281.

The problem happens more rapidly if I have several remote clients  
running simultaneous queries.
