Comment (by waddlesplash):

 Yeah, a slightly deeper investigation in KDL shows that Descent has
 somehow acquired the HWInterface lock and isn't letting it go, and so
 app_server is deadlocked trying to acquire it itself.

 Probably app_server should be made robust against these kinds of problems;
 we can't expect applications to not misbehave here. But I'm not sure how
 to do that here, so this really is a problem for someone who understands
 how app_server fits together better.
