    Hi,

    This is a known problem that showed up late in the 5.1 release cycle.
    I declined to allow the fix in as it was also somewhat disruptive.
    Updating to 5.1-CURRENT should make the problem go away. In any case
    it's fairly harmless as it happens after the disks have been synced.
