Comment(by arma):

 Replying to [comment:6 arma]:
 > - since i see these warns in 0.2.4, and therefore assuming that we are
 counting wrong, i am nervous about putting the logs into 0.2.3. i won't
 object to doing so if others really want to, but we should expect an
 ongoing pile of "bug" reports culminating in a good chance that we'll
 decide to take them out later as a backport.

 After sleeping a bit, I am less enthusiastic about putting the warnings in
 0.2.3. The reason is that we already know they trigger (meaning there are
 bugs in how they're counted). And the warnings themselves don't really
 help us find the bugs (otherwise I'd've given you more hints than "it's
 when my network is flaky"). So if we want to put the warnings in 0.2.3, we
 should also plan to backport whatever fixes it takes to make the warnings
 only trigger when they should. That's likely more than we should want to
 backport.

 To clarify, 0.2.3 is stable now. We're doing one last release, real soon
 now, and then calling it stable and focusing on 0.2.4.
