Here's some more data points:
- this problems started to annoy me before de-spl work has started.
- I can reproduce this in single-user mode, that is, without networking
  or NTP enabled.
- it only happens when tty is /dev/ttyv?, and I couldn't reproduce it
  from an ssh session.
- lowering or raising the nice value of the shell didn't help.
- it reproduces with/without ACPI, so it's not related to ACPI-timer.
- it reproduces both on UP and SMP machines, and on UP and SMP kernels.

Here's the backtrace for the hanging process:

(kgdb)

The line number is not accurate, since the core is older than the kernel
source, but it consistently hangs at the second call to mi_switch()
in issignal().

All machines I could reproduce it are running DragonFly installed on an IDE
disk, and one machine I COULDN'T reproduce it was on a ServeRAID disk.
But I'm going to attach a small IDE disk to that machine next week, and see
if I can reproduce it.
