defunc process



Hi all!

One of my hobbit client just turned purple. Then I notice that there is a <defunc> process running with hobbit. What does it mean?
It is installed in a Solaris 5.7. Please help

jupiter% ps -l -u hobbit
 F S   UID   PID  PPID  C PRI NI     ADDR     SZ    WCHAN TTY      TIME CMD
