The same is true of a hardware problem. Overall, I've not seen any difference in repeatability between hardware and software problems. Thus, repeatability or the absence thereof doesn't really point in either direction. However, since hardware is several orders of magnitude more reliable than software these days, the logical working assumption is that it is a software bug, until and unless proven otherwise.
