after researching this last night, I am pretty sure this is a bug in core 7.2, however I log it here in the hope that I can get pointers on how to resolve specifically in the context of forum nodes.

Anyway, I rolled Drupal 7.2 onto a site last Sunday, and ever since it is impossible for any user, no matter their permissions, to edit the first post in a thread. In the error log I get:

PDOException: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry 'node-217' for key 1... in drupal_write_record() (line 6851 of //includes/common.inc)

(I can post the entire message if useful but the rest is specific to the site and options)

Like I said, a quick browse for this type of errors last night yielded a few topics related to rules, see http://drupal.org/node/1169800. I have no rules or triggers on my site however so I think the problem is more fundamental.

Still, while I don't expect this to be a problem with Advanced Forum, does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve?

Using 7.2 core with AF and I don't have such problems.
Have you tried to edit post with AF disabled?

good point. Upon checking, to my surprise the basic forum had no such problems. Then on re-enabling AF it now works, albeit seemingly only on fresh posts, so perhaps it is due to a change in db from core 7.0 to 7.2.

well, I'm none the wiser, since I had definitely checked the editing of fresh/new nodes yesterday, but I did some cache clearing and further drupal tweaks since then so perhaps that helped / self-corrected the problem for all but pre-7.2 created nodes. I dunno.

thanks for advise all the same!
