star database errors (probably in all versions)

I've verified that these errors are in the 2x10^6 star database. They're probably all in the normal database as well, since they're really errors in the Hipparcos catalog. My source for these was the error list in the I/239 (Hipparcos and Tycho catalog) directory on Simbad.
