What does exactly the message mean and how do I stabilize this?  Any

This is most likely an MTU problem.

Does IOS enable PMTUD for BGP sessions by default these days?  The 476
(or something like that) MTU is unlikely an issue.  There could be a
forwarding bug which causes drops dependent on packet size, though.
