I realized last night that this is likely due to the race condition issue 
between syncprov & syncrepl when check pointing the cookie.  The replica's 
run the syncprov overlay so that we can see the cookie as it's a glue DB. 
They also have a check point line.  I'll have the checkpoint line removed 
on the replicas.

Does this sound correct, as per the note Howard made recently about this 
issue?
