It is the wrong approach. There must not be any inconsistencies of any kind.
The bugs should be fixed instead, as Brion mentioned. The current bug in
action going to be fixed, the consistency check going to run after that,
once, and we keep our eyes open for any new inconsistencies which may be a
sign of a next bug to fix.
