[rrd-users] rrd update hangs?

I've been running some scripts which use rrdtool to update 5 different mail
dbs and graph them.  On midnight on Friday, 3 of the 5 started failing.  Any
attempts to update them just hangs - I got lots of errors from crons and there
were lots of hung rrd processes in the ps listing.  I killed all of those, and
tried by hand without success.  So I deleted the rrd files and recreated them
the same as I had before, and they still won't update.  The same scripts didn't
change, the hung processes just look like

  root 23419 23418  0 09:01:52 pts/3    0:00
/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.33/bin/rrdtool update /opt/Mail/daily.rrd 994654800:1970


2 of the 5 are working fine.  I'm just completely befuddled because this all
worked perfectly until midnight on Friday.  Anyone have any suggestions?  I
just can't fathom why they hang....
