The first launch after a reboot is one where the memory is less
fragmented, and possibly where other tasks have not started, so clean
memory access is most likely.  The current manifest file reader takes in
the full file at one time and breaks it apart in memory.  This worked
well when there was only volume information present, but the addition of
the file-changed list made this operation much more memory intensive
(added in 0.7.03).  Forking a gpg task takes a good bit of memory and
the error message sounds generic, so I'm inclined to lean towards memory
issues.

To play it safe, I will change the status and leave this note that I'm sure 
it's related to:
