From the LA Times' Carolyn Kellogg, who is smarter than the average PR person:

From a layperson's perspective, thisglitch does seem to have affected certain types of books more heavilythan others. In fact, only one of the top 10 books in your Gay &Lesbian section continues to have a sales ranking (the Kindle versionof "The Picture of Dorian Gray"). No other section is similarlyaffected. Can you comment on that?
The reply:
Unfortunately, I'm not able to comment further. We're working to resolve the issue, but I don't have any further information.
Heh.
