I've occasionally seen systems wedged in a similar state.  I reported
my sighting of this on May 24th.  Haven't seen it since.

The one bit of useful info I've learned since my report was that from
a talk with the program's author, I suspect the object in question may
have been created with mmap(MAP_ANON,...).  I'm not sure if cc1 also
does this, but that may be some common ground..

Yes.  say 'proc pidhashtbl[PID & pidhash]->lh_first' in kgdb.
I suspect that it will be in exit() also..
