Sorry, I must have had a brain fart before. This is the actual output:

~ # /usr/local/sbin/lsof -n -i :25
COMMAND PID USER   FD   TYPE     DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
master  716 root   11u  IPv4 0xc2ef1ae0      0t0  TCP *:smtp (LISTEN)

Those error messages by fetchmail appear to be random. I have not seen one 
now in over four hours and that is with a modest volume of mail. I really 
believe it is solely related to the version update. If I could track it 
down more precisely, I might be able to report the problem to the fetchmail 
group.
