Are you sure that these programs were actually stuck? Or were they just unable to display and receive events from you? Last time I saw "problems" while upgrading xfs, my xterm/dist-upgrade was unable to display anything, but it was still upgrading things in background. So xfs finally got restarted at the end of the upgrade and I got everything working as before. Not nice meanwhile, but seems to be working fine iirc.
