kldstat / kernel linker deadlock

On 8.3-RELEASE I've hit a deadlock with kldstat.

I can't provide much information as procstat(1) locks up and I have
already rebooted the servers due to it breaking quite a bit in my setup.

Short list of affected processes (74 in all):

I had 2 minutely cron entries that were running kldstat(1)/netstat(1).

Guessing the kldstat(1) and netstat(1) deadlocked initially.
