Oops. Ok, I admit I don't run 1.3.* releases... (I upgraded from 1.2F
or G to 1.3A).

There is a way to make it work even with MRG ADB. I don't know the
details, but doubling some table's size eliminated this error when
Allen built me a couple of test kernels (or so I remember to have been
told). Maybe the table has been increased in size some time before
1.3.2?
Have a good one,
