Sorry, can't reproduce this exact case. The last log was actually number 3.
To reproduce similar states simply fill the data filesystem with any sql, 
(may need to be one that writes more than 16 Mb txlog). 

Compressed log something like:

Seems ReadRecord should switch to seg 1 above and not 0. 
Then txlog file 0000001 somehow gets deleted. 

(all rows from table journaleintrag are lost) test server only of course :-)
