I don't think my hang is related to that problem - mine seems to be in
the TCP code while that problem seems to be in the kernel / filesystem
code (or at least that's what I recall of it from prior discussions).
Plus, my problem just showed up in a recent build. The last time subr_
sleepqueue was touched seems to have been back in September.
