I'm hoping someone has already seen these, and I just didn't recognize the bug ... but seemed "bad enough", I should open one just in case. 

Where there recent changes? (in maintenance stream) ... think this might be related to the "state of the machine" and I should just try re-running them?

Paul, could you please try and run the UIAllTests on our last 4.3.2 M build?  I'd like to see if we can reproduce the failures locally.

Runs clean when I run it locally.

Ok, if they fail again on Hudson, I know the next step will be to ask webmasters to restart that windows machine (and/or check if there are any dialogs up, such as to approve and upgrade, or something). 

Thanks,

The re-test ran fine

So I'll assume its nothing to worry about. Sunspot activity or something

Possibly caused by alpha particles or cosmic rays: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_error#Causes_of_soft_errors
