I can see several categories with id="0" as well. Checking my index.xml 
backups it seems to be a long-standing issue: the first category with id=0 was 
introduced in my index.xml in May 2017. By itself, though that should not 
really be a problem (AFAICS id 0 is not handled specially compared to other 
index numbers).

What concerns me more though, is that categories with id=0 are duplicated. I 
see the first instance of a duplicate id in December 2017. It can't be 
triggered by routine operations, or I would expect to see far more duplicates.

So, two questions arise:
 - What is the cause for the bug?
 - How can we help users recover from this?
