Renamed main content node (node 2) => system don't work

I renamed node 2 to something else than default. And now, whatever system url I'm trying to access (/content/view/... /user/login .. anything), I get the same error message in the log:

Undefined module: name_of_node_2

All I can do is view the content nodes using nice urls. Nothing else works.

Sooo.... talking about v3.8.6 in index.php beginning at line 550:

        $translateResult = eZURLAlias::translate( $uri );


        if ( !$translateResult )
        {
            $useWildcardTranslation = $ini->variable( 'URLTranslator', 'WildcardTranslation' ) == 'enabled';
            if ( $useWildcardTranslation )
            {
                $translateResult =& eZURLAlias::translateByWildcard( $uri );
            }
        }

This is were it fails. $translateResult is not set. Then it launches into a wild_card search for the module to load, and loops for the number of times set by the ini setting MaximumWildcardIteration. Each iterations adds the name of node 2 to the beginning of the URL in the $uri object/array. And when done, the URI is messed up.

Sooo....
... except for disabling WildcardTranslation, what can I do to fix this? Is my database broken? If so, can I repair it somehow?

Checking the database in table 'ezurlalias' I find this:

mysql> select * from ezurlalias where is_wildcard!=0;

+--------------------+---------------+-----+-------------+-------------+----------------------------------+----------------------+

The middle one (company_name is node 2) seems to be the the troublemaker. But why are there several wild card url aliases? I have not created any of these manually. Is this a bug? What is the safe way to get rid of these wildcards when they create problems?
