Comment(by mstone):

 My terminology was a bit inaccurate; unlike the recv() deadlock, these
 read instances responded to 'Quit' events from Sugar. Presumably they were
 sleeping in poll() waiting such events. However, it seems that no data was
 being transfered. How could we have reached this state?

 The activity logs are quite remarkable. :)
