Sometimes, after loading a file, not every effect of the file, or perhaps no effect of the file, is incurred. This leads, for example, to unassigned variables and uninitialized data structures. This happens sometimes after loading a large system, such as LIAR or scmutils, or sometimes while loading the system because dependencies aren't fully in place. It is infrequent enough that I can get work done, but frequent enough to worry me, and I have seen it on more than one machine but only with liarc, so it's probably not just bad RAM.
