Just from the top of my head:

Drop into ddb and run look what 'ps' command reports for the stuck
process. Do a 'trace <pid>' in DDB and see what a kernel backtrace looks
like. Use gencore to grab a core of the process to see  it's userland
backtrace. Send all of the above to relevant people and/or threads@
mailing list.
