I don't see any obvious errors in the logs...but maybe the problem happened
before the time covered in these logs?

One thing though:  It seems we are deleting already-deleted routes very often..multiple
per second.  Any idea why this is?  Are your links in constant heavy modification?

Can you have it log to a file so that we have the complete logs
available?

Also, if that doesn't show an obvious problem, please run strace xorpsh
to see what system calls it makes (and which ones fail, perhaps).

Finally, you might try increasing the xrl related timeouts by setting
the environ vars on this page before starting xorpsh:

http://xorp.run.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/latex2wiki/user_manual/environment_variables

If increasing timeouts somehow 'fixes' it, then things are still weird, but
it gives us some additional information...

Thanks,
Ben
