ColdFusion Intermittently Cannot Find CFC

Ok, so a new one on me... ColdFusion has started to intermittently fail to find a CFC when trying to instantiate it. I started getting emails that the system was erroring out because it failed to find a component for part of a process in our system, but when I went back to try it myself, things worked fine. I dismissed it as odd until it started to happen more often. Click "more" to see how I replicated the problem and help me figure out what is going on.
