slips out of second gear 200

A new problem has reared its potentially ugly head on my for sale wagon. While driving down the road the other day, in second gear on my 5 spd (I think it's the M47 that doesn't have the puch button overdrive) when it just randomly slipped out of gear. I have been able to recreate it a couple of times since by accelerating then coasting for a few feet. It only happens in second. Why? What's up with this? Will it go away if I ever get around to installing the new tranny mount I bought 2 months ago? Does it need an adjustment somewhere? Or is it fatal?

BTW, the Volvo wagons make excellent substitutes for moving vans if you're in a bind!
