Whenever any of the 3 issues occur this text is displayed:

"*Starting anachronistic cron anacron
*Starting deferred execution scheduler ATD
*Enabling additional executable binary formats binfmt-support
*Checking battery state
*Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)"

Just below that the cursor is flashing.

So just to reiterate this is always displayed with no hang on logout; it
is frequently displayed with a hang when going from the login screen to
XDMCP; and is rarely displayed with a hang on shutdown.

I've attached my logs.

I tried logging in and logging straight back off again at 10:44 May 14th
(so this was when the text was displayed, but the PC didn't hang).

At about 10:48 I then logged off and clicked options and XDMCP. The text
was displayed but there was no crash this time. So I clicked cancel and
tried options XDMCP again, this time it did hang, as usual with the text
and flashing cursor. I waited a while and eventually pressed power which
made *Stopping Gnome display manager appear, and after a short delay the
PC shutdown successfully. Then I rebooted to write this!

I haven't been able to reproduce the shutdown hang for awhile, as I said
it happens very rarely.
