I have a strange case of corruption. ...
Before wasting too much time on this, I noticed that my disk was full due to a set of core-files in my home directory.
However, there is still a big problem with most Unix programs not catching disk-full problems and trashing/corrupting files.
I hope the bsddb does something reasonable in the case of disk-full problems... Have you already tried to run db_recover in the database directory (~/.pytone/mp3/ or whatever you have configured)
Unfortunately I just removed the corrupted file. Since this was a dvd media, pytone would have killed the content anyway after a rescan, so a recover was pointless and wouldn't have worked when the disk was still full :)
I'll try it next time if I see this happening.
