What does this RTC JBE message mean?

We are seeing this error in the RTC JBE log file
Environment
Observations
2015-11-02 16:27:01 [Jazz build engine] Waiting for request...
2015-11-02 16:31:35 [Jazz build engine] Found a user request for build definition "IPM Packaging 8.1.2 Extension".
Nov 2, 2015 4:36:38 PM com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.internal.LoggingHelper logSEVERE: Status ERROR: com.ibm.team.filesystem.client code=0 Job Broadcasting local changes has been in state 1 for too long null
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.7
-
plenty of RAM and disk space
- RTC 5.0.2, ifix6
Observations
- a normal build is 2 minutes
- after a restart of the JBE, several builds are successful
-
in a few hours though, a build request starts, but becomes "orphaned" i.e., the Eclipse client shows it is still running, but the Linux build engine does not show the build PID
-
The JBE then becomes unusable, i.e., no one is able to request a build; new build requests wait
- We noticed that .jazz5/.jazzlock persists and has same timestamp as the orphaned build log
- We've searched jazz.net and Google and found nothing helpful about this specific error message

Looks like JBE needs 32 bit JDK which we will try shortly.
