Ok. I spend some time and distilled the log file into the minimum  
needed to see what was happening. The very first appearance of the -1  
value is from the HTC client in the first (premature) PING request. My  
(new) guess is that since the PING request is issued before all the  
initial SYNC requests are issued, the client does not have all the  
folder/collection information in it's database so the -1 leaks into  
the PING request. PING requests are forbidden from being issued by the  
protocol until all initial SYNC requests are complete and the client  
knows the folderid and synckey for each collections.

I added some code to remove collections requested by the client that  
the server does not know about. Please let me know if this helps.

The pertinent changes are here:
