Is that the results of walking the table immediately after
the trap arrives, or at a random time.

Hmmm...   If you can't reproduce this behaviour "on-demand", then it
might be a bit difficult to track down exactly what's happening.

The two suggestions I can offer are:

  a)  Try running the agent with -Ddisman:event,
      and examine the output around the time that
      one of these bogus traps is received.

  b)  Try running a walk on the procTable, either
      regularly, or triggered by the trap, and
      see what that reports.
