I'll try. I think I should only need the geolite data to cause the problem 
and I can share that publicly. So far the problem seems to be happening 
consistently. I'll work on this at the office, but probably won't get it 
done until the afternoon.

If I have a substantial database dump file to provide for reproducing this 
do you prefer it on a web server somewhere? I expect that mailing very 
large attachments to the lists is a bad idea.
