Ah, that info is somewhat useful.  It looks like all those processes are
hung trying to lock afs_xvolume.  Probably some process has afs_xvolume
locked and is blocked on some other problem.  For further debugging, I
think we'll need to get the prog name, wchan (text and address) for
*ALL* processes.  It may have been the afsd itself waiting on f8690070
which is the hung process--that address is in the kernel heap somewhere.

Greg, can you make such a notation on the thing on the side of lola's
monitor?

Bill, is there a way to get a stack trace from a random process via the
NetBSD kernel debugger?
