I was able to reproduce this with Lucid. I will try to read about
attaching debugger and post the results here.

The latter. The frame gets frozen, whatever we do is not displayed.  The
menu bar is functional though.

It's just shown as frozen in a state before we press C-z. I ran M-x zone
and then pressed C-z, the frame was frozen with 'Zoning...sorry' in the
minibuffer.

No it doesn't. The only thing worked was to create a new frame.
