 When attempting to repair a corrupted database file in wordpress, the
 wp_postmeta table could not be repaired. I sshed into the machine and ran
 myisamchk to repair the database table in question, getting a "temp file
 already exists error." Removing the temp file allowed the repair to
 complete successfully.

 I'd expect the temp file to be deleted and a retry attempted before
 failure.
