What were you trying to do?
let my machine reactivate while I wasn't logged in overnight
What went wrong?
When I came in in the morning, there were hung processes run
from reactivate, specifically detach had been running for about 40
minutes. I sent it a HUP, and it died, and my reactivate.local was
run, among other things it runs clean_tmp_areas. A saferm that was
run as a result also hung.

I had ghudson takea look and he ran truss, and decided things were
hung on stderr:
