Is it possible your server is running into the sometimes common problem that
it is hanging up while generating a random number? This can happen if the
server does not have enough entropy and it would potentially be an
inconsistent problem.

This comes up a lot with people using svn:// as it generates a random number
for something. However, I know that anything cryptographic would also need
to do this.

Just a guess.
