Ok. So, what if you used to have supergroups enabled, then upgraded to 
1.6 without supergroups. Does this mean all supergroups information is 
just ignored, or will the supergroup content be corrupt?

If so, how do you fix the corrupt entries, after enabling supergroups again?

To enable supergroups again, should all DB servers be shut down at once, 
when replacing the binaries with "supergroups enabled" binaries?
