As soon as I sent my response (of course) I thought - why not just rename it and give it a try...

But from time to time I just open it as a table, exclusive, and delete a bunch of record types that I don't like - mostly various windows preferences or MRU lists (as they contain too many wrong paths now that I've changed disks) and then pack, set resource on. I guess there are debugger related records in there - I'd simply delete those, pack, try again.
