The source code is available, so you can edit and add more log messages
in the corresponding functions inside the permissions module, then
re-compile/re-install, if you want to go that path.

Do you reload records from the address table at runtime via rpc? If yes,
do you think it happened at the same time with the matching failure?
Trying to see what can be ruled out or not ...
