I have run tuning scripts over night with different cvs versions and I'm
fairly sure that the problem is around the area you mentioned before. Some
thing that happend here:
cvs diff -D 20051118 -D 20051119

However, it is a strange fault. Sometimes when I run with a newer cvs
everything works fine for a while, but at some point, the problems start
and then never goes away. I have yet to find a connection to when it
happens.

I will continue to look into it this weekend.
