I've been seeing consistent hangs with VBox 4.1.18, but mostly with shared folders and the like under Windows 7 with certain paths using Cygwin (probably an application issue, but I haven't dug into why things are that way). I'm not sure what the exact revision is for 9.1-BETA1, but there are a handful of threading and amd64-specific signal, etc related changes that may or may not affect things.
