Btree Extract Again (OpenInsight Specific)

I posted this a while ago and recieved one reply from Aaron Kaplan which didn't really address my problem. The problem I'm having is that when I perform a search I am sometimes getting btree.extract breaking on line 1 with a Variable Exceeds Maximum Length message. Now I am not passing btree anywhere near 64k of keys, in fact not even close to 32k of keys, and the system I'm testing this on does not have 64k worth of keys in the entire database, and even if it did I was under the impression that btree could handle this, (well if you call truncating results 'handling it'). I'm using OI3.5 and this problem most definately did not occur in OI 3.4.1.
This is driving me around the twist, I cannot isolate what exactly is causing this. It appears to be a combination of both the number of keys and the total length of those keys, (which I will reiterate doesn't get anywhere near 32k, 8k is more like it).
If anyone has any ideas at all I would be very appreciative.

Tyler,
Apart from reporting to you that all of our OI applications are now running under OI 3.5 and that there several calls to Btree.Extract without any known problems, I'm not sure how I can be any more useful.
If you want to zip up and e-mail the data/dict/index tables and send me the code you are using I'll be happy to try and replicate the problem and/or figure out a fix if possible.

Don,
Long time no hear. Thanks for the offer, I was hoping to have an answer today, (must be my day for asking hard questions), if I have no luck I may take you up on that.
OI is not my favourite piece of software at the moment, I certainly hope Jrev delivers what it promises.
Tyler, (gotta love HTML tags)

Especially if you know the trick to making them work here!
