We are currently using GHC-6.8.3 so we can't try the fixed version. We'll switch to 6.10 after it becomes the stable release and (hopefully) minimal work needs to be done to get everything to compile. This bug actually perfectly explains the behavior we saw in our full system.

The distilled test case we reported was based on our then current theory that too many connections were the cause of our problem. We're pretty sure the behavior we described was real, but it was not the cause of our problem as subsequent testing revealed. After delving deeper, we realized that the real culprit was too much data over one connection.
