It's not so easy to reproduce, it will occur under high load (and disk IO)
situations, e.g.when building the world (-j4). But not in every case, 
sometimes buildworld complete without a problem.

If the system is in this state, it will react very very slow. System load 
is high (without a causing process) and it will often hang (during shutdown) 
when performing a reboot. 

I'll try your patch.
