Confirmed.
It seems it's not actually frozen, because windows respond properly to
the signals sent from hitting the [X] window close button at the top;
but it's indeed completely impossible to interact with the window until
it's killed and started again.
gdb reports nothing unusual, strace just that it's still polling for
some GDK events that never come, if my assessment is correct.
I'm assigning this to myself as a reminder to check back on it in a few
hours (tomorrow work hours), and because this will need to be brought up
with upstream.
Patrick; please don't assign yourself to bugs unless you're planning on
working on a fix, which is what this would mean ;) The bug is otherwise
already correct, and you're subscribed to it since you're the one who
reported it; so you'll get messages for all updates.

Title:
Evolution Freezes when you Insert an Emoticon (Smiley Face)
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I was writing an Email and I decided to insert an emoticon (smiley
face) and instead of inserting the emoticon to where the pointer was,
it inserted the emoticon in the beginning of the email and then
Evolution COMPLETELY froze. My system was working fine, but Evolution
froze and I had to use Terminal to "xkill" the Program, then I
restarted the program and it "autosaved" my email with the emoticon..
Some other users may not be as lucky, however..
Please fix this bug...
