I have seen this problem myself, but it has proven to be extremely hard
to track down the cause. I have found a possible reason, and I have a
fix in testing at the moment. It's going to take at least a couple of
weeks to be able to tell if this fix has worked. It will be mentioned in
the changelog of the next version if I have fixed the problem successfully.
