I think you are right that Drupal is sending a malformed query. It appears to be specifically the book.module that is generating it (or possibly a contributed module).

Why do you think it's the book module? I'm not even sure that we're using it!

It's just a guess based on the limited information available. I searched all of the source code for core for SQL queries that match your error. Only the book module has one like it. That does not mean something else is not creating one bit by bit dynamically or that some contributed module is not doing it. It was just my best guess.

None of those URLs work - I get the same error message as on the home page with all of them, which makes me think it's not a module that's messing up, but something more core. But in that case why would it suddenly stop working?

Sorry they didn't work. There was a chance that the bad SQl would not be run on admin pages and they would work if your session had not timed out. No such luck. I can only guess it stopped working because new content was added or something else in the database changed resulting in a bug getting exercised -- one that was avoided previously. But again, I'm just guessing based upon the limited information and general experience with the software. ..chrisxj
