Art,

We're running the LDM here on a very similar RH installation.  We're
up-to-date on patches as well, but have a different hardware architecture.
I'm still intrigued by a potential timimg similarity and request that you
make the following configuration change to time bracket the system hang;

vi /etc/sysconfig/syslog
6c6
< SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0"
---
> SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 10"

then run /etc/init.d/syslog restart

Let's keep an eye out to see if this happens again.
