--- Comment #6 from Clemens Buchacher <drizzd at aon.at> ---
I have modified journalctl to output file and cursor instead of payload fields
(https://github.com/drizzd/systemd), and now it is easy to see that the files
user-120.journal and user-1000 at 0004df35caac7448-f0d0cc1ab7d0a25e.journal~ are
inconsistent. They use the same seqnum_id, but their seqnums are not monotonic.

$ sudo ~/src/systemd/journalctl --since 2013-07-17 --until 2013-07-18
