>Description:

While trying to update a machine to -current it spent ~20 cpu minutes in
extracting xfont.tgz:

# tar xpzf xfont.tgz
[ 6448.3086516] load: 0.99  cmd: tar 2494 [0x6db0dffe/0] 55.91u 1015.38s 99% 3124k

Attaching gdb showed:

Unfortunately gdb died:

--Type <RET> for more, q to quit, c to continue without paging--q
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_quit'
[ 6695.2111432] sorry, pid 2494 was killed: orphaned traced process
Abort (core dumped)


>How-To-Repeat:
no idea, apparently happens more or less randomly

>Fix:
n/a
