OK, this *seems* to have worked: After removing and creating a new,
empty /var/lib/sks/PTree directory, I started sks, and am getting
several such log messages:

==> /var/log/sks/db.log <==
2015-08-06 10:49:16 Sending LogResp size 5000

==> /var/log/sks/recon.log <==
2015-08-06 10:49:16 Added 5000 hash-updates. Caught up to 1425051646.231266

PTree has already 137M (and growing), so... Time will tell. But it
feels as if it were working \o/
