    Yahoo noticed a deadlock in the vnode recycling code.  If your machine
    below is hitting the kern.maxvnodes limit it could be the same thing.
    The way to tell is to generate a kernel core along with the debug
    version of the kernel binary (/usr/src/sys/compile/<KERNEL>/kernel.debug),
    and backtrace each locked-up process to see if any of them are going
    through the recycle code.

    Yahoo has a fix for that particular problem that they and I are testing.
