Running from CVS from Friday with your retry loop, I still had the same 
error happen once, so apparently the retry loop didn't help for me.

I have since updated CVS to that of today (10/4), and thus far have not 
seen the error.

If it continues to happen, I should be able to take some time this week 
to create a test case so that others can repro the problem.
