I managed to get gdb backtraces for the hung java processes yesterday.
It looks like the hang could be a result of the clone bug in glibc.
clone is used in thread creation.

Of course, this doesn't explain why killing the processes crashes the
system.

I've seen an infinite loop in sys_poll as well.

I agree the problem has been around for a long time.
