I've run another 8M queries through it in a test environment, and put
it onto a live box where its been up for 5 hours, answered over a
million queries and I've not seen a problem, so I'm hoping that this
is the right fix. Certainly I've not managed to see it running live
for anything like this long previously.

So we're clear - this is the patch I've been doing this testing with:
