Description

For some entries, chicken-doc signals a type error when trying to access items in the "Module (scheme base)" library chapter. It happens for all entries following a particular entry (I think it starts with "define-library", but am not sure).

This looks like the file-position in the index is not correct. Even though the db is created in #:binary mode, file-positions seem to be off, resulting in reading at the wrong position.
