Perhaps I'm wrong but I suspect that a Zope I'm running is dying

This is very unlikely. It may no longer respond when all its threads
are working -- but it will not die for this reason.
By dying I don't mean crashing and stopping but instead staying up and
running but not responding to anything. Like a coma.
This symptom, especially when these "hanging" threads cause no load at
all on the system, certainly point to connections to outside systems
that do not respond for some reason. I have seen this issue with Zope
instances that make HTTP calls to other systems, or even with a
hanging LDAP server which accepted connections from Zope but never
returned. Any software that makes outgoing network connections from
Zope is a potential suspect.
GDB can help you determine where the hanging condition originates.
