If it looks like the same problem (mythfrontend is unresponsive with
little or no CPU utilization), it would help to attach gdb to the
process and get a backtrace.  Find the process ID of the mythfrontend
process (e.g., "pidof mythfrontend"), then follow the instructions in
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.2 on getting a
backtrace.  Except that instead of the "run" command, do "attach
<process_ID_of_mythfronend>".  Capture the output and maybe attach it
to ticket #9218, or create a new ticket since #9218 is locked.
