It's definitely a problem in the code, I don't know of a fix yet.

I looked briefly into this bug when we were porting ThinkTanks to the Xbox and it isn't an easy one to fix but a reasonable workaround is to just change the sun's angle/elevation a little. This may cause the problem to crop up in a different place but it usually won't.

It's basically because those faces are co-planar/facing away from the direction of the shadow, or because they're just barely behind a face that is getting shadowed... There's lots of tweaks but none that work terribly well.
