Technically I have some clients in VMware guests, but it's not like
they're particularly loaded or anything. The VM becomes completely hung;
not even a panic message or anything on the console? If you can get
vmware to send it an alt-sysrq-t or alt-sysrq-w, does it not print
anything?

Can you run cmdebug from another machine, pointed to the server that's
hanging?
