    Hudson 1.378-1.383
Since 1.378, the remoting functions of hudson have become unstable. When using a Launcher to execute commands remotely on a slave, sometimes it fails to return any data. The following stack trace is found in the hudson log when this occurs.

This is currently causing issues with the perforce plugin (JENKINS-7664), and I've been able to reproduce it using the hudson_main_trunk#331 build on ci.hudson-labs.org as well.
