Hmm, strange.  It's the first time I've heard of such a problem, ever.
 Can you see anything out of the ordinary in /var/log/munin/*.log?

==> munin-node.log <==

The rest is clear.

 The emails contains information of the lock files existing, I assume?

Yeap.

  Are you able to reproduce the problem at will, or was this a one-time
 occurrence?  If so, could you try

It's totally repeatable. When I kill all pids of munin-*, and wait for
next cronjob, it happens again.

 "sudo -u munin /usr/share/munin/munin-graph --debug" and mail me the
 output?  I have a suspicion the spinning happens somewhere in RRDtool..
Yeap, I can although it's quite big, I have just run it and it ends ok
with no errors in fact.

One more important thing. This host behaves as a server and a client. I mean:
I have two locations.
This is one, and is graphing itself and some hosts.
And I have a second machine, that graphs the above and some others hosts.
Maybe that's an issue of cross-updating or sth.

Other weird things is that every time it happens, there are two
processes of munin-cron run at the exactly same time.
