Comment:

 It's not an instance of that, I believe.  The bug in the "hoo boy" comment
 is that nothing keeps two descriptors from having the same
 extrainfo_digest, and so there's no guarantee that a descriptor sd will
 appear in desc_by_eid_map[sd->extrainfo_digest], since some other
 descriptor might appear there.

 But this bug is different: there's an entry sd in desc_by_eid_map[x] such
 sd->extrainfo_digest != x, which implies that desc_by_eid_map is
 inconsistent.  This could happen because of three clauses:
   * Adding someting to desc_by_eid_map incorrectly
   * Changing an extrainfo_digest entry after adding it to desc_by_eid_map
   * Memory corruption.

 Investigating further...
