I'm seeing the same thing.  The config.pck file does have an emergency attribute,
which is set at 0, so it doesn't look like that setting is actually getting saved into 
the pickle.

In admin.py I note that it's built as a CheckBox('emergency', 1, mlist.emergency)..
is using a "1" there functionally equivalent to saying "on" or "off" like it's used every
where else?

I'm thinking that safeint is forcing it to 0 when it's saving it, because it's coming
back as "on" or "off", and safeint is expecting a number.

(As an aside... Is there any reason to keep the .db files?  They're version 36 and
we're at version 68...  I certainly hope nothing is using them..)
