thanks for looking... Chuck Ebbert mentioned some recent libc futex fixes
offlist that I'll look into.

when the syslogd hang happens, cron will fork off a new task and then the
child hangs. The same thing happens with ssh into the box (sshd forks and
the child hangs). The 609 cron scripts in the particular sysrq+t are the
result of normal system activity over a period of time, all hanging after
the fork.
