So, I just sat for about two minutes and watched at least a hundred corsairs come out of a stargate. Every one got blown up by a black market station about two seconds later, to be replaced by another coming through the gate. I've got a save partway through the lemming-event, if you want it. Let me know, and I'll email it to you.
EDIT: In the course of further exploration of the system, I found a Charon frigate on the course the corsairs were taking. As the whole process looked to be repeating with vikings this time, I decided to blow it up.
Hmm...nigh-endless reinforcements?

I would not send reinforcements from the same gate over and over.
If both fail see who is killing them and send out a task force to kill and loot the killer. (if they have a reasonable chance of killing it)

Hah. I don't think they would, in this case. BM station and a Korolov right on the gate.
Anyway, I think that something about the Frigate's code was causing the reinforcements like that. I don't remember regular stations having this problem.

mmmh
-send reinforcements from the other gate
-mark the troublesome station and make the new reinforcements pass a 100ls more distant
- Add a middle point in the path of the reinforcements, that is not on a line with the gate and destination.
