Usual trouble - runbib says "error"

runbib is aborting for me again with the unhelpful message "error", and 
I've gone through all the usual reasons why this always happens (eg. 
obviously missing fields in references I've added recently, stray colons 
in citation keys) to no avail.  When I run refdbd in debugging mode the 
last lines it shows as runbib spits out its error are:

SELECT 
thesis.t_author.author_name,thesis.t_author.author_lastname,thesis.t_author.author_firstname,thesis.t_author.author_middlename,thesis.t_author.author_suffix,thesis.t_xauthor.xauthor_role 
FROM thesis.t_author, thesis.t_xauthor WHERE 
thesis.t_author.author_id=thesis.t_xauthor.author_id AND 
thesis.t_xauthor.xauthor_type='primary' AND 
thesis.t_xauthor.refdb_id=416 ORDER BY t_xauthor.xauthor_position
child finished client on fd 5
child exited with code 1
server waiting n_max_fd=4

That same SELECT query appears a few times further up, in fact it almost 
seems to be stuck in a loop.  Its results are:

+-------------+-----------------+------------------+
| author_name | author_lastname | author_firstname |
+-------------+-----------------+------------------+
| ACA         | ACA             | NULL             |
+-------------+-----------------+------------------+ ...

-------------------+---------------+--------------+
  author_middlename | author_suffix | xauthor_role |
-------------------+---------------+--------------+
  NULL              | NULL          |              |
-------------------+---------------+--------------+

There is nothing unusual about this record though, because I have lots 
of authors without firstnames, middlenames or suffixes, and neither is 
that from a reference that I added recently.

What can I do to troubleshoot this further?

Thanks.
