The latest versions of rpm appear to have what is currently believed to be either a race condition or stale lock problem that causes it to lock up in a select call:
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {1,0}) = 0 (Timeout) select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {1,0}) = 0 (Timeout) etc.
These select calls on NULL sockets are used as an equivalent to sleep(3) or usleep(2), nothing more. The suspicion about a deadlock holds, though,
This is a known problem with some RPM versions, check if you have some __db* files in /var/lib/rpm.
