Hrmmm, I never got Andrew's reply.  I should have mentioned that I'm
already speculating it's firewall related.  This connection is going
across a netscreen VPN and I'm pretty sure the netscreen is timing out
the connection for some reason.  My question was actually why slony
leaves the node in a broken state instead of just trying the initial
sync again.  I thought it had acted like that in the past, but I haven't
seen an initial sync fail for quite a while before now.
