emacs is now handling encryption itself, I don't think any external
process is involved anymore. On an older emacs openssl or gnutls was
used, which allowed me to kill that process and get emacs back. This is
not possible anymore.

Furthermore, this is not necessarily related to encryption, I have no
way to know where emacs is stuck since C-g doesn't work.
