Hi, could you try applying the patch that Jeff recently committed
to -current:

   http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/subr_sleepqueue.c.diff?r1=1.47;r2=1.48

There was a race where a process calling pause() might go to sleep
instead of handling a signal that had just arrived. The patch hasn't
yet been merged into RELENG_7 but it would be good to get confirmation
that it fixes the issue.

Ian
