The queue index has ended up with a whole load of zeroes appended to it.

We've seen this happen a few times, usually associated with OS crashes 
or power loss or similar.

We changed the queue index file format to be more resilient to this sort 
of corruption in 3.2.0. I'm not sure if there's anything you can do 
though if you've already got a corrupt file with an older version of 
RabbitMQ apart from reset the node and start again.
