OK, we are pretty confident we have narrowed the behavior down.
Unfortunately, the issue is somewhat (very) embarrassing to report.

Our automation tools had been updated to monitor file system changes and
one of the semi-recent changes had been to clear properties when it detects
an SVN move (which catches SVN renames). As you can guess, the randomness
and non-reproducibility was induced by the timing of the file system
watcher callbacks and our understanding of what occurred during these
watches.

I appreciate everyone's time and apologize for the wild goose chase.

How I wish I could delete this thread.
