[Zope] zope freezes/halts after loading initial page

[Lee J. McAllister]

Most likely culprit on an RH9 system then is that you're running the 
original RH9 glibc library.

There is a problem with the glibc version released with RH9 that can cause 
siimilar behaviour, I found that updating the glibc and recompiling zope and 
python fixed it on my system.

If your glibc is not current you should update it, there are several 
mentions of the glibc problem and fix in the list's archives if you need 
more details.
