I bumped up the stacksize to 32MB, i.e. in /etc/login.conf:

daemon:\
        :ignorenologin:\
        :datasize=infinity:\
        :maxproc=infinity:\
        :openfiles-cur=128:\
        :stacksize-cur=32M:\
        :localcipher=blowfish,8:\
        :tc=default:

This seems to have done the trick. At least I haven't experienced any 
errors during the last couple of hours, and everything seems quite healthy.

I'll follow up if it turns out to be a fluke.
