The box is still up and running, but hangs when trying to read from
files:
/proc/31686/cmdline
/proc/31686/environ
/proc/31686/exe
/proc/31686/maps
/proc/31686/smaps
Process 31686 is "unkillable" (shows up as "D (disk sleep)").
So far, this happened only once and I dont't know, what might
be the cause. PID 31686 is a grep command, launched from the
"emerge" python script (emerge is Gentoo Linux package management
utility).

Is this an actual bug, or maybe hardware error? I would be grateful
for any help / comments on this.
