Gavin/Todd, 

Tracking it down, the timestamp correlates with a mysqldump that I have a 
crontab for which of course, has flush-logs.

/usr/bin/mysqldump --opt --flush-logs --all-databases --result-file=$FILENAME

I'm not sure if we want to flush the log files on this machine at this point.  
It's a tossup since there are multiple slaves hitting this guy replicating only 
specific tables in some cases.  I would guess that we could always restore the 
entire backup and dump what we want across to a new server before starting the 
incremental replication, but I'm still working that plan up right now.

Anyway, thanks for the pointers to indentify the problem.  

Gary
