I know that doesn't help much except for confirming the problem other people was
suffering. Sorry for the rant. I was too busy and too frustrated.

By the way, what does ECM stands for?

I must clarify that what I meant was that I used exactly the same version of
`org-mode', from git repository, with the two Emacs versions. That said, I never
used the `org-mode' version bundled with Emacs. I'm sorry for the confusion.

1. Sometimes when Emacs hangs in `org-mode', "C-g" wouldn't work. Waited
patiently for awhile and "C-g" work again. Pressing "C-g" produced the error
message: "Error in post-command-hook (zfill-post-command-function): (quit)".
Emacs hanged again, waited patiently for awhile until "C-g" worked again and
Emacs revived, but in an unstable state.

2. Other times when Emacs hangs in `org-mode', "C-g" wouldn't work until after
perhaps 20 seconds or so, hitting "C-g" breaks out. Emacs enters a useless
state, nothing works even "C-x C-c" doesn't work, but produces error: "Variable
bind exceeds maximum level" or something.

A few hours ago I switched back to Emacs 24.3.1, problem 1 happened once, but
never had problem 2. And editing in `org-mode' was several times more smooth and
faster. Way better. Again, I want to stress, I was using the same `org-mode'
from git repository (commit "2824502").

Hope this would help a little bit.
