this can only happen "if ((exitcode >= 11) && (exitcode <= 40))",
which qmail-queue doesn't return in case of "out of memory".

Maybe they do not only need quite a lot of memory, but exit(rand())
in case of problems (or are just careless enough to not set an
definite exit code, and reuse the errno as exit code).

a) update to 10.20 which may fix this problem
b) get more memory
c) see qmail.c, change
if ((exitcode >= 11) && (exitcode <= 40))
to
if ((exitcode!=12) && (exitcode >= 11) && (exitcode <= 40))
qmail-queue doesn't normally exit 12.
