Well I am using FreeBSD 6.3 and not solaris. Is it quite possible the same 
thing would have been done on BSD as well?

Are you on a Solaris box by any chance?  Seems the socket used by
trivial-rewrite is down or unresponsive, and when you restart, it is
once again available which is why the problem 'goes away'.  Just a guess.
There have been some posts about this on the mailing list before -- check
