I'm using Tomcat 6.0.0.29 and am also experiencing a similar issue where I am seeing "Drop message SESSION-EXPIRED inside GET_ALL_SESSIONS sync phase start date 6/21/11 3:22 PM message date 12/31/69 6:00 PM" when I restart a node in the cluster.
What concerns me is that the message date is 13/31/69 at 6PM. Have you made any headway on this?
