Hard to tell ... one starting point could be looking at a process
which you known is hung with ps/a. This will give you its proc structure
address. Then you can get a stack trace with tr/a

Another way, if you see lots of processes waiting on tstile,
would be to start with show all tstiles. Once you found the lwp which
holds the lock causing the hang, get a stack trace of it.
