Comment 48 for bug 418130

Eric pointed out that there had been a ec2 networking issue this morning (http://ec2status.notlong.com).

The system described above has uptime of '1:04' as of '16:07:13 UTC' (09:07:13 PDT), meaning that the reboot was right in the middle of the following two messages from amazon:

07:41:11 AM PDT We are investigating connectivity issues in US-EAST-1.
08:18:25 AM PDT We have identified a problematic transit route leading into the US-EAST-1 region. We have modified our Internet routing topology to avoid the problematic path.
