When there is a 2nd parameter no thumbnails are generated. By adding a few print you should be able to determine the file that is causing the problems.

(Have a nice holiday.:-)
Haven't tried running a clean indexing without thumbnails...
Regarding 2), I often run mdbindex from usbnet, inside a ssh session (btw, this is a marvellous way to detect bugs that don't appear on the emulator).

In fact some last weekend I recompiled ctb with some prints to discover the file causing the problem, but I suppose I put then in wrong places because I couldn't find out anything useful. It was a quict & dirty editing as I had to work last weekend. Then, travel so it will have to wait some days.
