It's certainly possible the hangs you're seeing were caused by the IOAPIC interrupt injection bug I just sent out a fix for - you could try doing an install either running kvm-qemu -no-kvm-irqchip or booting the guest with "noapic" on the kernel command line. If the IOAPIC bug is your issue, you shouldn't see any freezes.
