Well, I *believe* what is happening is that the carbon-format Valentina
plugin is sending vServer the Folderitem.Name property (which is right) but
the Mach-o vcomponents are sending vServer the folderitem.Absolutepath
property *as* the db name.  So vServer determines the DB is not registered
and makes an error.

I would guess it's just a glitch in the mach-o plugins, but that's just a
guess.  Of course, I don't know what Valentina is doing internally.
