I don't know whether this will help you, but can you try to increase
the keepalive value. To do so you need to edit
libxipc/xrl_pf_stcp.cc and recompile. You would need to change only
the value of DEFAULT_SENDER_KEEPALIVE_MS. Currently it is 10000
(i.e., 10 seconds). Try, say, 30000 (i.e., 30 seconds).

Recently, Dave Price had seen similar keepalive error messages, but
so far after increasing the keepalive value he doesn't have them
anymore (problem investigation still in progress).
