    Peter,
      The list address is checkpoint_at_lbl_dot_gov (I've cc:ed this reply and set 
    Reply-To)
    
      If you are seeing this failure, then I would NOT proceed with using 
    BLCR.  We should figure out the source of the failure.
      Given the things we've been through in the past, my only guess is that 
    you are using Xen with a version older than 3.1.2.  If that is the case, 
    the bug is actaully in Xen nor BLCR and you will need to upgrade Xen.  
    If that is not the case, let us know and we'll see if we can figure out 
    the source of the problem.
    
    -Paul
