I've created a Control that builds a gallery, and it's working fine in
my development environment, but keeps breaking live. The funny thing
is, all I need to do to fix it is change the class name in the Control
directive (which as far as I can tell is inconsequential as long as it
is distinct in the app) and it works again, for a few hours.

Any ideas on what to look at?

objectdataSource case sensitive with parameters??
Don't understand state in WebControls class
Page CallBack
Add control to TreeView (ASP.NET 2.0)
Using Gridview To Export Data To Excel Error (ASP.NET 2.0)
Master Page
Where in the page lifecycle does validation occur?
DetailsView EditItemTemplate CheckBoxList2 bound and Related to CheckBoxList1
Treeview/Treenode oncheck clientside event handler
