Since the bug is confirmed fixed for the others that reported it,
there's something different about your system.
Basically, we need to know if either a) your system somehow fails with
the same bug with ddcprobe as with xprobe.sh, or b) for whatever reason
on your system xprobe.sh gets called
I did a little digging. xresprobe calls ddcprobe.sh. If that doesn't
give it a valid resolution, it calls xprobe.sh, too. Indeed, on my
system, ddcprobe (not ddcprobe.sh) says edidfail, so ddcprobe.sh just
returns with no output, and hence xresprobe calls xprobe.sh and smashes
my screen.

Soren,
Ah, well an edidfail could explain it. This doesn't leave us too many
options, but possibly the best of the worst is to simply skip xprobe.sh
entirely for Intel laptops. I suspect this may result in various other
issues, but all much less severe than a hang during installation.
