Comment(by sysrqb):

 It appears that whatever is causing this was put into production on
 2013/08/14. Does ponticum have any sort of log that will be able to tell
 us what changed that day? I'm still going through commits that were made
 to bridgedb prior to that date. Does the bridgedb logfile go back that
 far?

 I determined the date by doing a lovely binary search through the bridge-
 pool-assignments on metrics and running
 {{{
 for i in ./*/*; do echo -n "$i: "; cat $i | awk '{ print $1; }' \
    | uniq -d | wc -l; done | grep -v 0$ | head
 }}}
 over the month. August 14 was the first day that contained duplicates.

 {{{

 This isn't an answer, but at least it gives us another avenue to attack
 it.
