Yup, that's it - thanks!

Having run it I get:

procstat -k -k 1927 (PID 1927 is the 'ls' that's locked up)

  PID    TID COMM             TDNAME           KSTACK
 1927 100206 ls               -                mi_switch+0x16f

Which will hopefully mean something more to someone here than it does me at 
the moment ;)
