Can you try attaching to tpop3d with a debugger and
sending a stack trace:

$ gdb /path/to/tpop3d pid-of-tpop3d-parent-process
    [...]
(gdb) bt
    [ prints stack trace ]
(gdb) cont
    [ tpop3d continues to run ]
    [ wait a few seconds, then hit ^C ]
    [ do the bt thing again ]
            [ repeat a few times, see if the stack trace
            changes in any interesting way ]
(gdb) detach
(gdb) quit

-- I'd be interested to see the results.
