This time it was pid 2859 and file descriptor 4, which pointed to pipe[20775] .
>From lsof:
gdm-binar 2859      root    4r     FIFO        0,8      0t0      20775 pipe
gdm-binar 2859      root    5w     FIFO        0,8      0t0      20775 pipe
Both ends of the pipe appear to be in the same process.

While gdm was hanging, I did a startx -- 4 from virtual terminal 4.
It seemed to work, but crapped out while I was composing an e-mail.

Don't know what that means.
'Tis something I've looked for before without learning anything.
