I really can't say I'm sure, but I suspect it is closely related to the "Required X remaining elements in buffer, only had Y" crash, in that the state of some transfer buffer somehow gets garbled somewhere in the process. I think it's very strange that it seems to happen primarily to static objects, however, since their buffers should never be modified again after they're initially created.

Then perhaps therein lies precisely the problem?

Were the blocks that way from the outset, or were they working from the beginning and only then "turned bad"?
