reading up more on that, the upstream bug you linked points to a bug
in glibc, fixed in 2.20 apparently (although i'm not sure, the
different reports seem inconclusive), that is triggered at high
concurrency levels. While it's a real bug, I very much doubt that's
what you're seeing (how many accounts are you polling?); it's a lot
more likely that the phone is having intermittent connectivity issues.
Could you check for that?
