We have 700 rows in the table ezurlalias with the attribute is_wildcard set to 1

Sometime I have this line on the php error log:

[Thu Feb  1 13:40:39 2007] [error] PHP Warning:  Unexpected character in input:  ' in /var/plain_site/cache/wildcard/wildcard_990f901eb0a7074f57e798d0b69a4947.php on line 7490

When this error appear, the web site is dead.
I don't know if this error kill apache or if apache have a bug and generate this error .
I check the cache file and there is no bug at the line 7490.

Can I delete all row in the table ezurlalias with the attribute is_wildcard set to 1
without of risk ?

In the setting (site.ini) I can disable wildcard translation but what will happen ?

don't flush the cache
