In my opinion (and only my opinion) i think that
it is kinda disturbing if we hover on one item
and immediately if we hover on another item, the
accordian doesn't open for the second item.
I think that the interface should always be
responsive to the user. If the mouse is over a
menu it should activate. The animation is really
just an 'extra'. The ability to navigate a web
site by accessing the menu items is of paramount
importance.
One possible solution might be to offer either behavior as an option.

Jörn, this is fantastic... very re-usable as well..
I have a question/suggestion though... When i hover over one of the
items, and before the animation completes if i hover over another
item, the animation for the second item doesn't occur. Now, i will
have to move my mouse out of that item and hover over it again to get
the other item to expand. Is it something that can be fixed, or is it
a known limitation that we will have to live by...
Well, so far that was intended to be a feature, not a bug. The
combination of long-running animations with hover is annoying, right.
But it is also annoying when the accordion keeps changing on each mouse
move, even when you didn't intend to get a different chunk. "Fixing" it
isn't difficult, but it is difficult to decide what the right fix
actually is. Your help is appreciated.
