Sounds like a candidate to our issues that we are seeing on both 4.8 and
4.9.
We see it quite easily as we run gre tunnels with bgp inside them using
ipsec
to encrypt gre.

We are seeing the connectivity issue antyhing from a few times a day to a
few times a week.
And the time I caught it while it was going on things started working
immediately after some
bi-directional ike traffic.
