Back around 2002, I painted a bedroom with a water-based eggshell
enamel. At the bottom of one wall, where the wall meets the trim,
something is leaching out and running down the trim. It is water
soluble, I can wipe it away. See the link below for the image.
Anyone know why this happens?

Resinous stuff can separate from water-based paint - have seen it only
once, on exterior painted stucco/cb. This occurred only two places on a
large building and seemed to seep out quite slowly, in small amount. I
researched it at the time, and can't recall any particular cause.
