I think I've got reproducing this nailed down.  The second a 
parallel session really does the trick.

Can predict roughly when it will blow now, based on time and the 
byte counter value for the 10.81.82.5 session.

Running it again tonight, will fail in about five or six hours.

Do you want me to enable any debug tracing when that counter 
gets close to the 4GB boundary?
