The odd thing is I haven't specified a velocity.properties file, and have been relying on the default. The org\apache\velociy\runtime\defaults\velocity.properties file seems to be in order. While experimenting I've found that if I set the offending property in the code using Properties.setProperty(), then another property causes a similar exception, like so:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Error initializing Velocity: java.lang.ClassCastException: 'modificationCheckInterval' doesn't map to a Long object
It seems that wherever these property settings are coming from, the last word in the property identifier is being obtained instead of the value. Anyone know why this would happen?
That's simply how the error is reported from the ExtendedProperties class - including the key name rather than the value.
What you're seeing might actually suggest that it can't find the default velocity.properties at all, though I'd have thought that would produce a warning.

It looks like your velocity.properties file has some errors in it. It would be helpful if you posted the contents of that file here, but at a wild guess you may have a line that looks like this:
file.resource.loader.cache = {something other than a boolean}
, where it should look like:
file.resource.loader.cache = true
Alternatively it could be whitespace after the end of a similar property entry (not sure how the o.a.c.c.ExtendedProperties class deals with that but java.util.Properties doesn't like it).
I'm somewhat surprised that it only fails intermittently, but all may become clear..
