[Users] VE stuck when shutting down.

I was trying to get OpenVZ running on a Debian etch host (kernel
2.6.18-openvz-13-1etch4-686).  I was just about done getting my template
setup and when I shut down the VE it got stuck and I got this spew. (see
below).

This server has been up and running without a fault for 3 years without
VZ, so I'm very skeptical that it's a hardware problem.

How do I unstick the VE?  It won't stop or start.  The only vz process I
see with ps is this:  

root      9063     1  0 Sep19 ?        00:00:00 [vzmond]

It is unkillable, kill -9 does nothing.  This isn't a server that I can
reboot frequently.  How can I recover from this?

Thank you,
