So I've been running a pkg-rolling_replace and one of the packages being
rebuilt is python3.7, and it has got stuck, apparently on an "entropy"
wait in the kernel, and it's been in this state for over 24hrs as you
can see.
The only things the process has open appear to be its stdio descriptors,
Further to this, here's the ktrace output from just before and after the
SIGINT:
9350 9350 python 0.122852724 RET mmap 127488830459904/0x73f34e73d000

9350 9350 python 6.141515919 RET getrandom -1 errno 4

I would love to see instructions how to do this - I have not
