One useful tool is a sample of the process to see where each of its threads is spending its time. This can help identify causes of deadlocks, which is what it seems like you have. There are several process-sampling tools in Mac OS X: the "sample" command, the Sample Process command in Activity Monitor, the Time Profile (All Thread States) tools of Shark or Instruments. For sharing on a mailing list, the text files produced by the sample command are probably simplest.
