Well, considering that we're pushing this into production and the
server was installed from Rawhide RPMs, no, not really. :)  Reproducing
the RedHat install locations for this stuff is a pain in the ass.
However, considering that it's not consistent and not continuous, I can
work around it.  In the meantime, I'll try to get some detailed logging
so that perhaps I can get a good look at what goes on during a failure
case.
