I've only started paying attention to the message when dcd_mgr dies, but so far
2/2 times it dies with:
pthread_create: Resource temporarily unavailable

For the last crash, my dcd_mgr log has 250 messages like:
connection thread 1
connection thread 2
connection thread 2
etc. The thread number is always one of 0,1,2. 

This is just speculation, but my guess is threads are not being resused, there
are 250, and that is too many.
