I don't really know my way around the kernel so I'm just guessing here:
Is there a proctree lock release operation missing in kern_sig.c,
function issignal()? There seems to be one lock operation more
than there are release operations. I tried putting one in and
now gdb doesn't hang the whole machine (at least as easily as
before.)
