It sounds like requests for stats updates are not getting through to the
collector.  I wonder if your kernel is blocking those packets for some
reason (probably ill-considered iptables filters?).  There is a test
for packet filtering conducted during postmaster startup, but we don't
repeat it after that.

strace?  You could at least confirm whether it's receiving anything.
