Ok, after looking in dbcheck I can answer the question of why it
didn't create the tables, but not the question of why the tables
weren't there to begin with.  The tables are only created if the
MusicDBSchemaVer is set to NULL (or doesn't exist) in the settings
table.  However, I've got  | MusicDBSchemaVer | 1002 | NULL     | in
there.  Why, I don't know.  I guess it's one of the potential hazards
of using a not-completely clean database when transferring from one
host to another, but I'm not sure how the other tables got lost.
Hopefully when I get home tonight it'll magically work after using the
old metadata.sql scripts.
