Now I've dug out my Mac I can confirm I see this hang as well.

The problem is that we never reach the NS run loop and therefore
windowDidEnterFullScreen is never called.

It appears ns_select returns in this code:

  if (hold_event_q.nr > 0)
    {
      /* We already have events pending.  */
      raise (SIGIO);
      errno = EINTR;
      return -1;
    }

hmmmm.......

This fixes it for me, but whether it's a good idea or not I don't know:
