My fc5 system hasn't "hung" in 5 days, so I'm hoping that something
that I've tried has fixed it.  Still too soon to tell for sure I guess, but 
here's
what I've tried:

yum -y update
(It was already up to date as of about 10 days ago, but I updated again).

Disabled the following services:
acpid
apmd
avahi-daemon
bluetooth
cpuspeed
hidd
irqbalance
isdn

Removed the following from cron.daily:
prelink
beagle-crawl-system

I'm hoping that one of these things fixed the problem.
