it looks like you have some oscillation going on; one way to find out is
texexec --pdf yourfile
copy yourfile.tuo yourfile-old.tuo
texexec --pdf yourfile --once
texutil --ref yourfile
diff yourfile-old.tuo yourfile.tuo
it should show differences
oscillation can take place when decisions are made based on previous runs (but only in tricky situations where the multi pass info gets loose from the target); it's one reason why there will never be real automated high quality typesetting -)
