There's been a pattern in the past year plus of interior pages, like cat pages, losing their apparent pr for periods of time. It hasn't seemed to affect their positions or traffic all that much, but it's disconcerting to see.
You might be seeing that. I saw it happening again, but unevenly, during this last pr "update".
Linking should be based on keyword relevance and to a lesser degree to the numbers of links on the linking pages, not pr.
And on the traffic coming directly from the link exchanges.
But nobody seems to care about that much.
I'd be willing to bet money the pages you are talking about could never be shown to have been penalized.
