     Hans seems to have trimmed the following from the beginning of Karsten's
message, so I'll address that part here.

     AFAIK, yes.  However, see Hans's suggestion that using SIGHUP may
somehow result in the problem happening later on.

     At least eighteen hours. :-)  Beyond that, I see no pattern so far.

     No, I do not know how to cause it to happen.

     I've never seen it happen before now (0.2.1.2-alpha).
