SubjectPlease comment: Unkillable process; ikb trace shows hang in unix_data_wait()
I don't mean push or sound demanding, but if anybody is interested in this
and thinks some further information would be useful, please let me know
asap. I'll have to boot soon, and then the unkillable process goes away.
Now I have ikd enabled so I can dig any info available - if I only knew
what is useful.

These unkillable processes seem to appear with 2-4 week interval, so I
don't think I'll run ikd this long again. This isn't too big a deal or
anything, but it'd be nice to fix. It's just I don't have the skills...

Anybody?


TIA,
