It seems I created this problem by adding bacula's log to the list of logs 
monitored by webmin. After removing the log from webmin's list last week, I 
have not encountered the problem again. Obviously, I didn't fully understand 
webmin's system log module and made the mistake of assuming it was a quick way 
to read a log. Lesson learned the hard way.
