Yes, the 2 log files that expose this error message (that were renamed
since then by logrotate) have an unusually low boot number. The dates
match the server outages we had in January. I see binary junk instead
of logs in the middle of these files. So grep gives up and does not
parse the remaining of the file. I added --text to force it to
continue and I can now tell by how much the number above is short.

So boots in January are actually:

782686 + (24309-5155) + (18084-13661) = 806263

I'll record this in our spreadsheet.

Cheers,
