These are most commonly due to either a "pathological regexp" or some
broken code run with inhibit-quit (e.g. from a timer or process filter).

The best way to track it down (and fix it) starts by running Emacs
under GDB and to look at the backtrace (including and especially the
Lisp backtrace) during those hangs.
