I see. The problem might as well be in the area of UFFI/BDB. I should
also run some C based BDB tests to check that by BDB libraries are
sane as well.

Yes. I ran the same code using Clojure rather than SBCL and got some
corruption warning as well. Hence I assume that this problem is not
related to SBCL.
