I should had thought of that myself... OK anyway here is the result:

The hang is reproducable, emerge froze the system again after download
the source.
Lockdep triggers immedetly before the freeze, but the result is still
not helpful:

I also had another BUG output during system startup, but that should
be unrelated:
