Just upgraded to June 15th sources, started up all the processes, and am 
already at 29 blocked processes ...

I've checked for states D, E and L ... nothing ...

Actually, let's go one better ... attached is a complete list of my 
process table (MWCHAN, STATE, COMMAND) ... right now, vmstat is showing:

  1 33 0 6381952 177944 1695   0   0   0 1601   0   1   0  416 50012 1657 14 14 72
  1 33 2 6376440 181744 2013   0   0   0 2172   0   3   0  448 68528 1629 17 15 68
  4 33 0 6385484 178364 1944   0   3   0 1758   0   8   0  420 57698 1221 17 14 69
23 46 0 6463664 149528 5294  29   4   2 4659   0  37   0  505 44758 3040 27 28 45
  4 34 1 6424904 169660 4216  16   7   0 4047   0 211   0 1002 47502 5769 42 30 28
  1 35 0 6453992 167388 2414   0   9   0 2265   0  44   0  535 62932 3160 18 18 64
  7 33 0 6443672 168100 1642   0   0   0 1652   0   5   0  448 51974 2163 15 15 70

So, according to this, there should be 33 processes blocked somewhere ... 
STATEs D/E/L all show nothing ... even state R (long shot) is showing 3-4 
processes, and that's it ...

This kernel is actually worse then the last, in that the last, on a 
reboot, I'd see 4-5 blocked, and then it would slowly rise over the course 
of 24 hours, not start at 33 and rise from there ...
