After a few seconds and lot of output, the system hung and I could not switch to another VT, but music kept playing in the background. Doing the REISUB sequence, the system restartet after Alt-SysRq-R or -E already. This was reproducible (I've tried it twice), the restart however appeared only once: it required a hard reset the other time. This is probably related to the generated output, since it did not happen on VT1 after reboot, where I've used "-o outputfile" though. Using "sudo strace -p $(pgrep X) -o /tmp/1" and "tail -f /tmp/1" also does not cause the hangup.
