The hang was actually due to the Avahi code in the net backend, which
was my #1 suspect.

Two things happened:
 - 1.0.19-24 was misbuilt without Avahi support
 - it looks like a fix/change was made in Avahi triggering this
   deadlock. Whereas it was necessary on SMP to lock the Avahi thread
   before stopping it, it looks like it's not necessary anymore. That
   would actually bring the behaviour back in line with the Avahi
   sample code.

I'll have to check whether Lenny is affected, because that new
behaviour is news to me.

JB.
