Protege db schema conversion

Through the life of Protege as a tool, the database schema has undergone 
a few changes. As far as I know, the best approach for upconverting the 
schema of a database ontology has always been to first export it to 
clips (in an older Protege version) and then open that clips file in a 
newer Protege version and then save it out to a db. This has worked for 
us reasonably well in the past (we have an ontology for which the 
developers still use an old Protege version). But lately this isn't 
working well any more. I can still successfully write out our ontology 
to clips files. Newer versions of Protege (i.e. 3.4.7, 3.4.8, and 
3.5beta) can open the clips file and things look OK. But when I try and 
save it out to a db, things go wrong. The resultant db, in the Protege 
UI, looks like all of our classes are untyped (nothing in the right hand 
pane). Also, lots of leaf classes appear to be missing in the tree. Now, 
if I query the database, these classes exist and have types. Further, if 
I open the new database ontology in Protege 3.4beta, it looks fine. What 
changes have occurred in the database backend, since 3.4beta, that could 
be causing this?
Thanks,
Todd
