Minor snafu (6)

I believe the answer is:

mishap

(Other definitions for mishap that I've seen before include "Stroke of bad luck" , "Accident, something going wrong" , "Accident, unlucky happening" , "'Accident, bad luck (6)'" , "Blow" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and The New York Times.
