Still need help but at least I realized that the problem is actually with the new getty (i think)... after the "logout/exit" hangs for a while I will get a "ID 5: getty respawning too fast stopping for 5 minutes" type of message. If I mark the tty in question "off" in inittab and run telinit q as root, then make it "respawn" again and rerun telinit q - I often, but not always, get a login back. I get the "stall" no matter what user logs out, but it is much worse on the console I use to startx.. I background X and logout, this is the one that hangs irreparably.
