hi all,
I'v been happily using 1.3.15.7 (sitting behind nginx) with no real
problems to report of. I tried out 1.3.17 and ran into a fairly
strange and serious problem.

I had the new version running in production for about an hour (served
about 800k requests in this period). after a few minutes of production
load, requests from several clients were failing in some application
level assertions (the post variable in question is base64 decoded and
then zlib decompressed). it's difficult for me to tell exactly what's
being corrupted in the request body, but I have noticed that it
generally seems to happen twice per IP (the client generally retries
30 seconds after a failure) and the same assertion will trigger the
next time around. the bodies from back-to-back requests are supposed
to be identical (and are in length) but not in content.

have any similar issues been reported on 1.3.17? what can I do to help
debug this? thanks in advance :-).
