I used to see this issue on heavily overloaded clusters, but haven't been able to reproduce it in a while.  All check does is run a sc

One thing you could try is changing the check.bro script that comes with broctl to do

terminate();

instead of

terminate_communication();


I think Daniel also had a branch of broctl that just used bro -a instead of the check.bro script.
