Yes, I killed it because it had been stuck there for several hours, as
reported by several other people around the web. So I guess the bug
summary is wrong, as it was auto-generated when I killed the process and
I assumed incorrectly that it was reporting the actual issue that was
occurring.

I've found an earlier bug that's still open for the same issue. Marking
this as a duplicate of that.
