It seems to boil down to
src/sys/net/if.c:1581
                 error = ((*so->so_proto->pr_usrreq)(so, PRU_CONTROL,
                     (struct mbuf *)cmd, (struct mbuf *)data,
                     (struct mbuf *)ifp, p));
It hangs here and does not continue.
Can't figure out what it's trying to do here, but thought I would publish 
what I have found so far.
