It happens all the time on one of my nameservers, but only when amanda is
trying to back it up.  Then it says this:

> Dec  4 23:00:43 HOST syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available
> Dec  5 00:00:36 HOST syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available

It does not affect the machine other than this message.
