Okay, how about this:
- -- copy start --
       CHANGES IN THE 6.1 RELEASE

 Bug Fixes
 ---------
[snip]
large object fixes(Sven)

- -- copy end --

guess we'll wait until sven reads and comments. :)

meanwhile, i'll see if i can find the problem. For those interested, the

 "OTICE:LockRelease: locktable lookup failed, no lock"
