`emacs-version' will additionally show the compile date and a little
information about the system.  `M-x report-emacs-bug RET' will provide
more information and send the report to the right mailing list.
Maybe running Emacs within gdb (many Emacs developers do this all the
time) would provide more information when the lock up occurs.  See
etc/DEBUG for more information.
