Since the process didn't exit, it must still be in the process table.
When you get to this state have your process do something like:
fprintf(stderr, "The weird process is pid %d\n",pid);
fflush(stderr);
sleep(1000);
Then see what ps says about that process. If that doesn't offer any
hints, attach to the process with gdb, vdb, wdb, dde or some other
debugger.
My HP-UX system doesn't have a signal 64, either.
