How did you manage to use gdb on an i386 kernel? Using qemu or something?
Yes, I use qemu.

It looks like the machine was trying to oops, only it gets stuck on
logbuf_lock. Perhaps it hit an oops while running printk_clock() inside
vprintk() then tried to go recursive.
oopses while holding logbuf_lock are rare, and appear to be fatal. Perhaps
we should ignore logbuf_lock if oops_in_progress, but the chances are we'll
just hit the same oops again..
Do you have "time" on the kernel boot command line? If so, does removing
that option make the hang go away?
No, I have no "time" option,
I use grub, the config looks like:
kernel /boot/kernel root=/dev/hda1 init=/linuxrc
