mplayer hangs the system requiring h/w restart



Am having this problem, fairly reproducible.

NetBSD 6.0 BETA (snapshot over a month old) on i386
mplayer 1.0rc20100913nb11 (shouldn't matter, it's a system issue)
X11 native

Steps to reproduce: run a video in full screen mode with mplayer and use
right arrow to skip contents, particularly when the video is close to the
end of the track.

The video and audio starts looping continuously over the last one odd
second part of track. No key or network port or even power button now
responds and only way out is h/w restart.

I think, no matter whether mplayer has a bug or not, system should not
hang this way.

Has anyone faced this? Have any recent updates in NetBSD 6 fixed anything
that may relate with this?

Mayuresh
