Hi Bill,

We discussed this issue in yesterday's public IRC meeting. D303k and
jamesyonan managed to reproduce this issue on a Windows 7 VM, but not
consistently after every hibernate/resume cycle. d303k promised to try
testing this on a real (non-VM) Windows 7 laptop today. For details see
the meeting summary (when it gets archived):

Anyways, dazo asked if you could set "verb 7" loglevel in OpenVPN,
reproduce the issue and send the logfile here.
