Tom,

Got GDB installed on the errant node and did a back trace call (I'm guessing
that is what you were looking for when you said stack trace) on the process
that shows in the process table as executing the hung SQL command.

The backtrace is:
(gdb) bt
#0  0x0088b7a2 in _dl_sysinfo_int80 () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2
#1  0x0096f3ab in semop () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#2  0x081ba8f8 in PGSemaphoreLock ()
#3  0x081e4d9e in ProcSleep ()
#4  0x081e1db3 in GrantAwaitedLock ()

Thanks for the help,
