I can't recommend an alternative tftp server, but I can offer some help
debugging the current one -- the tftp server is pretty widely used, and I
haven't seen any other reports of this.  Could you expand a bit on "hangs
without any response" -- do individual transfers stall, or the entire tftp
server?  What flags are you using to tftpd in inetd.conf?  If you use a
second client at the same time, does it also appear to be hung?  What
clients are you using?
