I now did a TOC when it hung. (No virtual console switching possible,
but NumLock still worked. Here's my TOC content:

r02:	vsnprintf + 0x604
r27:	$global$ + 0x0
r31:	number + 0x2b8
IIA Offset:	number + 0x98

So it's most probably dieing in some printk() or something like that
with a bad parameter or format string? Is there some way to get more
than only the CPU state (eg. more stack frames)?
