Note: to my knowledge there has not been any loss of wallet due to this bug. You simply have to endure the annoyingly long process of re-indexing the block chain after a corruption.

The bug is unrelated to losing a wallet, just because the wallet is not even using leveldb (it is still at BDB). Your last sentence was the reason for my last earlier paragraph.
Anyway, I think the attention is well deserved and I hope this contributes to a real fix. The current situation makes me not want to use the official bitcoin client under osx, at all. And this will be the case for a long time now, since I have no idea whether the bug will be correctly fixed.
