[issue2039] Sometimes, DragonFly 2.9 systems can not reboot

[Francois Tigeot (via DragonFly issue tracker)]

New submission from Francois Tigeot <ftigeot at wolfpond.org>:

uname -a output:
DragonFly dfly32.zefyris.com 2.9-DEVELOPMENT DragonFly
v2.9.1.1027.gb133d-DEVELOPMENT #3: Sun Apr  3 10:24:40 CEST 2011

The problem may be present on older versions of 2.9.

After issuing a "shutdown -r now" command as superuser, the system starts the
shutdown process

The last console messages are:

  Syncing disks...
  done.

the machine then waits forever; it can only be rebooted with a hard reset.

I'm setting the priority to critical, thinking about poor souls having to manage
remotely colocated servers.
