It does get over it eventually. Where the startup crashes is:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 8: ordinal not in range (128)
X Error: BadDamage (invalid Damage parameter) 153
Extension: 146 (Uknown extension) (there really was this typo)
Minor opcode: 2 (Unkown request)
Resource id: 0x6001e1
Segmentation fault

I haven't deleted the *.db yet.
