I'm not sure that there is a loop.  Apart from the word hang in the
subject line, the submitter didn't talk about a loop at all.

Perhaps he's referring to the loop where the kernel continuously
sends acquire messages to racoon but racoon responds by doing
duplicate adds thus deleting the larval SAs?
