Hang in "double/triple" select()

User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.50 (gnu/linux)

I happened to be using a "slightly old" version of CVS Emacs 

GNU Emacs 22.0.50.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2006-01-19 on kfs-l.imdomain.dk

and went away from the screen for an hours so, and when I returned,
Emacs was stuck in a non-responsive mode with a "blank" emacs frame.

I attached to it with GDB, and this is what I got:

Unfortunately, the gdb process also hangs shortly after this
(I made the stupid mistake of trying to flush Emacs' display.)

I'm not sure how to interpret this -- but given the recent reports of
problems with emacs hanging in select() this might be related.

The kernel is some RedHat 9 enterprise edition:

Linux 2.4.21-builder-1 #3 Tue Aug 12 13:37:02 CDT 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
