I have this too on occasion.  What I've discovered about it is that
there seems to be some problem between processes inside of emacs.  If
I use festival from my customized emacs menu to have the computer read
some text to me, and then try to use gnus, it'll hang.  If I use gnus
and then later festival, it doesn't hang.

Festival starts a process that somehow interfers with gnus.  I've used
several other emacs subsystems without this problem so it must be
something in gnus.

I don't know if you're starting anything else, but I'd suspect the
issue is inside of gnus.
