I have had Gnus hang on me twice. Both occasions occured when I
started checking for new news from the group buffer, then realized
that my PPP link had been down & up again, & attempted to cancel with
\C-g. No response, no Emacs activity on the screen or in top output.
I killed my Emacs process after 4 or so minutes.
Usually \C-g'ing at this time isn't a problem.
Gnus v5.5; nntp 5.0; nnvirtual 1.1; nnml 1.0; nnfolder 1.0

I've heard of this a few times now. It seems like Emacs will hang on
certain network conditions, but this is really something for the Emacs
maintainers to deal with.
