I sometimes have the same problem with one of the replay tests (I don't 
remember which one). It hangs with avocado, but does not hang when I run 
it with the same command line without avocado.

It could be some replay issue (like infinite waiting for input in 
main_loop_wait), but I couldn't trigger this behavior with 
logging/debugging enabled.
