We tried the 20051023 and 20051024 snapshots. The 20051024 hangs significantly
faster than the 20051023 and also at different commands (Not only the standard
"tcsh -fc pwd") even though the example here hangs again at that place.

As a sidenote, these last two snapshots are also easier to "unhang",
one "ls /proc/<hangpid>/fd" is enough.

I only paste/attach the 20051024 info, if there is interest I can also send
the 20051023 info.
