[rancid] RANCID recording the "quit" command

I had the same issue with Nexus 5010s running NX-OS v4, and with a circa ~2002 version of rancid.  Never did find any root cause, but about a year ago we upgraded rancid and the underlying server (it was also circa 2002), that cleared the problem for us.

Does anyone know how to stop RANCID from tricking itself into thinking a change has been made?

For example, I get an email every so often (2-3 times a week) saying a change has been discovered:

Notice how it's sending the command "quit" while the configuration is still being outputted?
