I guess you are doing HDR panoramas, aren't you? Me too, but I take a
completely different approach: instead of passing all the images to Hugin, I
make a separate panorama for each exposure, and merge them afterwards; when
the exposures are aligned, the control points and optimizations can be
shared, I just change the images.

My workflow is:

* Copy the files from the first exposure to IMG1, IMG2, ..., IMGn (actually,
I use symbolic links in Linux, but Windows users will probably have to copy
the files).
* Open IMG1, IMG2, ..., IMGn with Hugin, create the control points,
optimize, ...; save the project and create a panorama named PANO1.
* Now copy the files from the second exposure over IMG1, IMG2, ..., IMGn;
execute the project again, but save the result to PANO2.
* Repeat for each exposure, and you will obtain a set of bracketed panoramas
PANO1, PANO2, ..., PANOn.
* Do all the HDR work.

Hope this helps.
