I had this last month or so,  Check in the system.log what processes are
running around the same time that the packets arrive.

I 'think' that it was to do with an instance of the tosser running when the
packet arrives so they get ignored until the next time it runs.

Of course my memory might be wrong :)

It has not happened this month but was to do with running more than one
instance of golded at the same time so when exiting it sets a semophore up
while the other instance is still running.

I am now trying to avoid having more than one instance of golded running.
This was because I was responding within an area but needed to look at another
message for details etc.
