Thanks for the answer.
We have a test environment but there it isn't reproducible.
Just on the production system. But everything is configured identical.
We use Apache with mod_proxy (via AJP).
Only the connector? It is pretty standard.

The Apache Tomcat Native library is not installed.

Are you using HTTP or AJP? From your description, it's probably HTTP
but it's worth asking.
Are you able to test/reproduce without the lb or a second Tomcat in
the mix? I'm sure this is a rare occurrence, so reproducing might not
be easy. If you have a test bed environment that is identical to
production (you do have one, right?), can you load it down and observe
intermittent failures like this? If so, try hitting a single Tomcat
directly and see if the problem disappears.

Have you reviewed the code in your test? Sometimes the tests are
flawed. :(

Of course the developer told you that the software is bulletproof. :)
Can you post your <Connector> elements from your server.xml (minus
anything that might be considered sensitive, of course), and let us
know if you are using APR (aka "native") with Tomcat.
