Exception `Errno::EAGAIN'

I get this repeated error - about once a second:

Exception `Errno::EAGAIN' at
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/unicorn-0.95.0/lib/unicorn.rb:643 -
Resource temporarily unavailable - accept(2)
Exception `Errno::EAGAIN' at
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/unicorn-0.95.0/lib/unicorn.rb:643 -
Resource temporarily unavailable - accept(2)
Exception `Errno::EAGAIN' at
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/unicorn-0.95.0/lib/unicorn.rb:643 -
Resource temporarily unavailable - accept(2)

Which seems to be related to:

        ready.each do |sock|
          begin
            process_client(sock.accept_nonblock)
            nr += 1
            alive.chmod(m = 0 == m ? 1 : 0)
          rescue Errno::EAGAIN, Errno::ECONNABORTED
          end
          break if nr < 0
        end

My unicorn.conf is:

worker_processes 4
working_directory "/etc/puppet"
listen '/tmp/puppet.sock', :backlog => 1
listen 8140, :tcp_nopush => true
timeout 10
pid "/tmp/puppet.pid"

  preload_app true
  GC.respond_to?(:copy_on_write_friendly=) and
  GC.copy_on_write_friendly = true

  before_fork do |server, worker|
    # the following is recomended for Rails + "preload_app true"
    # as there's no need for the master process to hold a connection
#    defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and
#      ActiveRecord::Base.connection.disconnect!

    # the following allows a new master process to incrementally
    # phase out the old master process with SIGTTOU to avoid a
    # thundering herd (especially in the "preload_app false" case)
    # when doing a transparent upgrade.  The last worker spawned
    # will then kill off the old master process with a SIGQUIT.
    old_pid = "#{server.config[:pid]}.oldbin"
    if old_pid != server.pid
      begin
        sig = (worker.nr + 1) >= server.worker_processes ? :QUIT : :TTOU
        Process.kill(sig, File.read(old_pid).to_i)
      rescue Errno::ENOENT, Errno::ESRCH
      end
    end

    # optionally throttle the master from forking too quickly by
sleeping
    sleep 1
  end

The platform is Fedora 10, Ruby 1.8.6.

Oddly, if I comment out the preload I get:

Exception `Errno::EPERM' at

Repeatedly.
