bug#6585: 23.1; Hang / CPU 100% on background interaction when in minibuffer

I'm running the emacs23 that comes with k/unbuntu.  I didn't build it
myself and it apparently doesn't have debugging info in the image.  And
so what follows may not be so helpful.  But none the less this is the
gdb session.  You can see the ^Z at every point where emacs was failing
to respond.

I suppose I'll have to build my own emacs to be able to provide anything
further that might be helpful.  I'd just like to confirm that this
doesn't sound familiar to anyone.  And maybe someone has a suggestion
for a more common-place scenario that might trigger this (rather than my
steps to reproduce which involve Allegro Common Lisp).
