Ditto here. And strace shows, that it hangs before a stat(). Seems to be one of the changes in linux/fs. Unfortunately I've not enough time to check this more thouroughly.

PS: here are some traces of hung amds:
# strace -p 1093 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1639, ...}) = 0 open("/etc/mtab", O_RDWR) = 9 flock(9, LOCK_EX) = 0 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1639, ...}) = 0 fstat(9, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1639, ...}) = 0 ...
and on another machine:
# strace -p 505 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1512, ...}) = 0 open("/etc/mtab", O_RDWR) = 9 SYS_143(0x9, 0x2, 0xfbad2480, 0x2, 0x9) = 0 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1512, ...}) = 0 fstat(9, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1512, ...}) = 0 ...
# strace -p 339 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1414, ...}) = 0 open("/etc/mtab", O_RDWR) = 9 SYS_143(0x9, 0x2, 0xfbad2480, 0x2, 0x9) = 0 stat("/etc/mtab", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1414, ...}) = 0 fstat(9, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1414, ...}) = 0 ...
