I think I've found at least one major culprit.
There is a line in gdm.conf that configures a backup script to be run if
the X Server fails.
FailsafeXServer=/etc/gdm/failsafeXServer
In order to be able to run an emergency xserver on the failing display
without having gdm interfere, it checks whether gdm is the parent and if
so sends a SIGSTOP. That's those zombie kill processes I noticed.
This might explain the severity of our 26D problems.
