Patch PE83-2109290
------------------

Platforms: All

* Fixed a problem where dbrepack could unexpectedly abort when a data
  set is processed which is not related to other sets, such as a manual
  master set or a standalone detail set.

  In this case, dbrepack could abort due to a segment violation.
  An error message like below is output:

  ** Caught signal 11 -- traceback follows:
  signo = 11
  errno = 0
  code = 1
  addr = 0x40

  D0: panic: Fatal problem detected in signal_crash_handler

  As a consequence, the processed database is left in an unaccessible
  state and needs to be restored.
