Its likley you are panic'ing in X, and the system is waiting at the
ddb prompt.  But you can't see it or do anything, since X has control
of the graphics and kbd, so it looks like the machine is frozen.

Try adding options DDB_UNATTENDED  to your config.  Or just do
sysctl  debug.debugger_on_panic=0

Both of these have the same effect: they will prevent ddb from stopping
the panic.  Make sure you have a dump device setup to capture a
crashdump.
