From `emacs -Q`:
1. Type `M-: (setq dired-movement-style t) RET`
2. Open any directory in Dired.
3. Type `p` three times.
Dired freezes when reaching the top of the directory list.
The NEWS entry says:
When non-nil, make 'dired-next-line', 'dired-previous-line',
'dired-next-dirline', 'dired-prev-dirline' skip empty lines.
I noticed only later that the only supported non-nil values are `cycle`
and `bounded`.
Perhaps the NEWS entry could be clarified, or perhaps the value of
`dired-movement-style` could be more forgiving (such as making `t` the
same as `cycle`, or just fall back to the default behavior instead of
freezing).

Thanks, I went with the latter (t is now treated as 'bounded'). Fixed
on the emacs-30 branch.
And with that, I'm closing this bug.
