What if you get some output from ktrace/kdump? Additionally, try to force the process to save a coredump and investigate its .core with gdb would help tracking down the issue...
Note that because when using kqueue the process should get a "kqread" if it is waiting for kqueue event. If the process is stuck in "RUN" state then a coredump would be more helpful.
Cheers,
My ktrace/kdump output is huge. Here is a typical excerpt:

I haven't been able to get a .core file yet. More info as I catch it...
