Modified Files:
	src/sbbs3/smbutil.c
Log Message:
Fix index corruption resulting from packing an unmaintained msg base

and filebase corruption.

Bug was introduce in v3.19 with the filebase support:
- we were assuming the newly packed (rebuilt) index had the same record offsets
  as the original/source index (if any records are skipped, e.g. because they
  are deleted, they offsets aren't the same, so you end up with an index (.sid)
  file that's too big and thus fails chksmb verification
- we weren't reading the entire file base index record so packing a filebase
  would corrupt the index

Bumped version to 3.21
