Comment(by static-void):

 Btw, I wonder if it's the right place for a sanity check. I mean, there is
 a lot of code which relies on memory structures being correct. I wonder if
 it's possible and productive to cover it all with checks. Rather, such an
 index should not be loaded in the first place - i.e. there should be
 checks when loading, if it's possible.
