[Zope] Zope on Mandrake 9.2 fails during service restart

Hi all, first time poster to here, though I've been using Zope since about 
last March.

Here's my issue:
Zope runs fine.  However, sometimes during a restart of the service 
(necessitated by either a Zope crash (much less common now), or a new 
Product installation) the service just hangs.  The zdaemon/zdrun.py script 
runs, and it keeps trying to spawn child processes but these children never 
come up and eventually die.

Now the really screwed up part: I have to uninstall Zope to get the service 
to come back up.

This issue has happened since we installed our new Mandrake 9.2 server for 
our intranet (running Zope 2.7.0b1 proxied through Apache).  Since this has 
started, I created a new RPM for Mandrake out of the 2.7.0b3 tar and 
installed it.  Zope was up for 33 days until today when I restarted the 
service to recognize a new product.

Is there a lock file being created somewhere that I don't know about?  This 
issue usually seems to come up after Zope has been running a few days under 
full load as our Intranet server.  It is very VERY strange to me that I 
have to uninstall Zope to get the service back up.

Any help would be very appreciated.
