Depends on how things are broken. I suspect that the data structures for
appending transactions are borked. (The unpack list error seems to
support that.) In cases of Data.fs corruption, this is not an uncommon
symptom. The good news is that you can still read things. At worst, you
end up doing a bunch of copy/pasting of source between browser windows.
If you can install ZSyncer, go for it. Else, the Zope export/import
facilites should help a lot.
