Intermittent cold-weather starting problem

My '99 9-3 (red DIC, automatic trans) has 86k miles and this winter started "living" outside. It is driven about 12mi a day back and forth to the train station. It is serviced regularly by a well respected local saab/volvo shop and is otherwise in good shape.
Twice over the past couple weeks I've had trouble starting in the morning when its been very cold out. The engine turns over and catches as normal, but then stalls immediately. Upon attempting restart a few times in a row, the same thing happens. But if I then wait about 5 minutes, it starts and runs fine - as if there had been no problem (and I get "check ok" and no idiot lights on).
Any similar experiences? Suggestions on where to start troubleshooting?
