Was pointed out to me yesterday when I was attempting to help someone with
a similar problem that RedHat 9 uses the "NPTL" pthreads. So, either of
the pthreaded or the LWP fileserver will only show one process.

Do you have all relevant (glibc) updates applied? If so, while the
fileserver is nonresponsive, can you attach with gdb and get a backtrace?
