In doing a test upgrade from CiviCRM 1.9 to 2.0 on my local machine (and boy, am I glad I did a test one first!), I get the following backtrace and error when I run step 5 of the upgrade process:

unrecoverable error
    Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

    Database consistency check failed for step 5. Value missing in civicrm_custom_field for the column 'name'.

I'm using a dump of both the Drupal and CiviCRM databases from the live site, so I know I have the most current data and database structure.

In looking at the database dump, two of my custom fields have NULL values in the 'name' column in the civicrm_custom_settings table.  When I edit the fields settings in CiviCRM admin, I see a field for the label, but not the field name.  Is that something that gets created behind the scenes when a custom field is created?  If so, if I edit the table and add a name for the field, will it break anything?  Everything has worked fine so far with those custom fields without the names, so I don't want to break that.

Thanks.

In my case, the empty (null) name fields all occurred where the label contained a slash, so I guess the code that generated the name from the label choked on the slash.
