Alas, no...not really sure where to look.  It has the feel of a
thread deadlock somewhere, but I'm only a poor Perl coder, so it's only a
guess.

Perhaps there is a timeout problem that causes the hang; I have been
unable to corrolate.  Should be pretty easy to test, though - why don't
you try and replicate with a "truss -vall -l -D" and see if that shows
anything helpful.
