I suppose it is possible that things hang and they are not accessible.
I've never seen it with emacs, but I don't use emacs much (and then
often -nw). Something I've seen a lot on different platforms though is
that some `invisible emacs' hogs the CPU and the user, unless he does a
ps, doesn't even know it's running.
