I haven't had this kind of freeze in several hours now. I have,
however, experienced another freeze where the screen just froze and
nothing reacted anymore (no mouse movement, nothing).

I believe this to be a different bug and will report it separately as
soon as I get around to it.

For now, this should count as positive feedback for the patch in the
green repository.
