#173813 - Unlucky
Responding to: ???'s previous message
When some later unrelated change somewhere else knocks it out, you will be looking in the wrong area.

Or a new batch of chips comes in with a different random value. In fact I feel very unlucky that I did not have it fail 3 years ago. It would have been log fixed and done with.

A Lucky bug is something that does not work and the symptoms tell you where and what the problem is.
