Can you say what changed in the past few months? Are "identical
simulations" truly identical? Did you recompile the codes? Run them on
different hardware? (etc.)

Do the cuda tests pass now? It's not impossible that you are seeing a
hardware problem. Of course, maybe someone on the list will recognize
the symptom (the error message itself is of almost no use.)
