We did also experience this after moving to rc10, by some reason field_has_fixed_size() in src/lib-index/mail-cache-fields.c is called with an undef value of 32, it seems to be safe to return FALSE rather than i_unreched()

It shouldn't really be happening at all, but I think this change should change the crash to a "cache file corrupted" error:
