Auth process sometimes stop responding after upgrade

[Simone Lazzaris]

Some more information: the issue has just occurred, again on an instance without the

I've observed that while the issue is occurring, the director process goes 100% CPU. I've 
straced the process. It is seemingly looping:

FD 13 is "anon_inode:[eventpoll]"

Killing (with -9) the director process, without stopping or restarting the service, restores 
the correct behaviour.
