Re: Ben's XEmacs is inoperable at the console in GNU/Linux
ok, i can duplicate this too. i'll look at it tomorrow, since it's
bedtime now.
it probably is related to the modeline changes i recently made --
there's some stuff to print the tty frame number if it's greater than 1,
done in a clever [or hackish, you be the judge] way.
someone might try disabling that code -- it's in modeline.el -- and
seeing if that fixes the problem.

Does it read .emacs?
Does C-g help?
Or C-g C-g, perhaps?
If yes, how about
(setq debug-on-signal t)
(setq debug-on-quit t)
and then (when in appears to hang) C-g or even C-g C-g.
