I have seen this in several occasions:

  *  Zope 2.4.x (x <= 3) with Python 2.1.1

     This configuration can cause memory corruption with all sorts
     of weird behaviours.
     
     Restarting Zope caused the problem to disappear temporarily.

  *  Persistency bugs caused by improper sharing or caching (in
     Zope applications).
     
     Restarting Zope caused the problem to disappear temporarily.

  *  Zope with older ZEO servers sometimes told this.

     Has been auto repairing. No special action necessary.
