I had this problem under 3.1. I also had inetd get into a confused
state where it too would print messages of junk pointers, then close
connections. Upgrading the machine from 32 MB to 80 MB fixed the
problem for me.
From what I could tell, heavy VM load, e.g. high scan & page out rates,
not necessarily at the time of the error, usually prior to, would
usually precede the errors.
