After further investigation, I found the problem.

Apparently, there was a hung DCM from a couple of days ago, with a
supposedly active connection to ATHENA-AS-WELL.  The kernel even claimed
there was an active network connection.  However, this is not possible,
since ATHENA-AS-WELL rebooted.  Killing the DCM parent cleared up the
kernel network connection and allowed the DCMs to proceed normally.

Mark: Could there be a missing check for ECONNRESET (or whatever the
error code is)?
