It could be a failing switch.  You could try some boot-time diagnostics to
see what the story is.

The fes-x6xx boxes are powered by port asics which control port regions.
On a 648, the regions are: 1-12, 13-24, 25-36 and 37-48.  One of the
failure modes on this box is that a port asic can die and cause forwarding
problems.  If this happens, the problems will be restricted to a specific
port group.
