This does look remarkably similar to the problem Dmitriy identified last 
year - see http://somic.org/2008/04/22/snoopy-fubars-erlang/

Specifically, your epmd log shows the node registration traffic 
(ALIVE2_{REQ,RESP}) but no query traffic (PORT2_{REQ,RESP}), and the 
other symptoms are the same too.

So my suggestion would be to check for the presence of a snoopy or 
similar software on your machine.
