Oddly enough, it means that qmail-local crashed, and that the local delivery
has therefore been deferred -- i.e., qmail will try again in a little while to
deliver the message.

The first step would be to figure out if it's random or not.  i.e., is it
always deliveries to a particular local address that crash, or is it random?
