Not super familiar with AWS, but can you move instances to a new hypervisor? I've seen similar issues with VMware and XEN where the network stack at the hypervisor gets a bit goofed up and moving the VM to a different hypervisor fixes the issue. Rather than stop/start and get a new IP if you can keep the IP, but move the instance somewhere and the problem goes away that would be quite telling.
