Although I have stopped chasing this bug, my guess too, is that the
problem is with ZServer somewhere. For one, placing a print statement
inside the async loop solved one of the problems I had, but I never
figured out what was wrong. In the end I gave up and wrote my own python
supervisor module (based on Dan Bernstein's author of qmail) which
basically restarts Zope when it dies, plus a script to check if it has
hanged in which case it restarts it again.
