Menus (and other theme options) disappear after directly editing the theme settings variable

theme settings menu disappears

After directly replacing just the icon location (changing sites/example to sites/default and nothing else) in the theme settings (global and theme-specific) of a site recently updated from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6, the menu for the site disappeared with array_merge errors in two lines in the ./includes/theme.inc file.

Going to the global theme settings and resaving the variables (which were all missing, no checkboxes marked) fixed the problem.

Strange. But true!
