The interesting detail is it would always stop at exactly 64 sockets open; which is the maximum number for which select() doesn't have to spawn a second thread. Problem disappeared. Given the traces I got the reproduction would involve somebody's deranged trojan SSH scanner. 64 to too low for Fail2Ban to prevent disaster so I didn't bother. The fools aren't getting in anyway.
