Ideally, world and kernel being out of sync shouldn't cause instability of this sort. Typically, it might result in tools such as ps, top, or maybe ipfw not working as desired, but not hangs. If you could confirm the last date you had a kernel that didn't have instability problems, we can try and track down what change it is between then and now that caused the problem to arise.
