If it's a classic deadlock then we need to find the other half of the bug.
I understand, but I can't get that information.

When I type asInit() and then CTRL-C, I get that one stack trace.
But from then on, the IOC shell is hung, no more telnet or serial
line access, only a hard reboot or power cycle,
so I don't get to look at other threads.

CPU consumption was no issue up to that hangup,
and afterwards, I can't say because I have to reboot.

So in the interest of political correctness,
we can call this an unexplained hangup in semTake()
instead of a deadlock.
