I'm seeing a similar lockup here with postfix-2.1.1, and kernel/world
built yesterday with fresh source. However, it's not a usual lockup;
when I'm not running X, I can switch between console, but nothing is
echoed back on the screen, except for ctrl-alt-esc. Does this look like
the hang you've been seeing?

The ps command in DDB showed that smtp process is stuck in `lockf' state.
I didn't have time to write down the backtrace, but I can do it on request.

The postfix in question is built on 13 May, and it used to work fine
until I upgraded the kernel on 30 May. I'm going to rebuild it to see if
it's reproducible, after backing up the old binary.

Regards.
