I've seen this once before too, when bridging a network with lots of
hosts. I suspect a race, perhaps when adding multiple new hosts at
once or something. They went away with a flush, IIRC, but of course
that doesn't address the underlying problem. If it happens again for
you, try that and see whether it helps restore normal function; if so
it may help indicate which is cause and which effect.
