Finally! Someone else found it.

I hadn't seen anything on this in the mailing lists, and we had been having
this problem for quite a while. It was extremely peculiar. I have reported
it to IEA and have spent over 4 hours on the phone with them on it over a
series of phone calls and finally we concluded that it is a bug of some sort
and Shawn filed a bug report with Dale and the other programmers and they
are going to look into it. I would suggest calling IEA (if you have a
support contract) and speaking with Shawn about it directly since he will
surely remember this little bugger. That, and/or email him through
support@iea-software.com.

We did find a temporary work-around, that works most of the time. You
probably want to get with him on this. Plus, he could do a little bit more
trouble-shooting to determine if you are having the exact same problem for
sure.
