No, not recently. I've seen something similar (see:
https://list.open-mesh.net/pipermail/b.a.t.m.a.n/2008-January/000550.html )
but I dont remember which PID caused the trouble. Do you have an idea for how 
long the daemon was running without any interruption ? 

The PID which referenced the hanging thread seems to be the debug thread. 
Perhaps the problem was related to the bug which Sven Eckelmann identified 
recently. Revision 1123 for bmx has no dedicated thread for debugging 
anymore. So if this was the problem it should be fixed now.
