We certainly didn't but CoreOS may have.  I've asked CoreOS if they know
what's going on.

Are there any extra diagnostics I can gather from a CoreOS system to help
figure out what's going on there?  Is there anything I can do to get more
useful diagnostics when one of these failures occur?  As noted, I can
reproduce the issue but it's expensive, requiring hundreds of VMs to
hammer away for an hour or so.
