I regularily see unkillable processes (blocked in uninterruptable NFS things) on several versions of IRIX when NFS is involved; not just Apache, but tons of things. I really doubt this is Apache's fault; the only thing I can suggest is that you try upgrading and downgrading IRIX and adding and removing patches.
