Hi Christian,

a couple of years ago probably means you were running R11? Do you recall 
what version of Erlang you were using? Was the mixup happening under 
heavy load, or under normal circumstances? While it is fairly easy to 
reproduce, we are seeing the problem only under relatively high loads.
