Nope, still hangs with latest bzr. Also, it seems there's a (require
'browse-url) that's missing somewhere (it complains whenever I open a
news, and evaling the require makes it go away).

That's without imagemagick, I couldn't figure out how to enable it (it
says "no" in configure, although I've got the lib installed, and
--with-imagemagick doesn't change anything).
