these were only the threads that showed up in htop. Here's a full
analysis about what all threads are doing:
Process 9303: stuck in xine_play()/pthread_mutex_lock()
Process 9319: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
Process 9320: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
Process 9321: loop of ~3 msec nanosleeps
Process 9322: loop of poll() calls every 335 msecs
Process 9323: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
Process 9324: stuck in a loop of 1-second futex-waits + mmap/munmap (malloc)
Process 9325: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
Process 9326: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
Process 9327: stuck in pthread_cond_timedwait()
now here's a weird thing: occasionally, when i strace one of the
threads, i can get a single frame refreshed in the Kaffeine window - but
the general picture does not change, the same 'stuck' state is still
there.
most threads are sitting in:

9324 is looping around this place, apparently in the opengl video output
driver, but the backtrace is not always this one:
