The watched column was added in dbver 1159(?) which is part of 20-fixes 
branch.  So having that column in your database does not necessarily 
indicate any corruption related to mixing SVN trunk.  I have it in mine and 
I never used SVN trunk.

The code to make use of 'watched' in not in the fixes branch though.  And if 
you do want that functionality you would need to upgrade to trunk... and 
then you'll need to be careful with your database.
