This issue was brought to us some months ago by a Ubuntu Advantage user,
because one of the OpenStack charms (IIRC the keystone charm) was
reloading the configuration often enough to trigger this problem. I
don't have more details than those as I was not actively working on the
issue.

Also is a common (bad?) practice in configuration management software to
reload configurations often, some are better written and reload only
when it's needed, but I've seen a fair amount of sysadmin's scripts
where calling "reload" is considered a cheap and harmless operation.
