You should see an info-level message that starts:

"Unable to parse descriptor of type"

Can you send any messages like this to the list?

If those messages contain a filename, can you please send us a
pastebin link to the contents of that file?

(If the messages just contain a hash, look for a file with a name
that contains that hash in unparseable-descs in your data directory.)

I opened a ticket for this bug:
