More info:
I have NOW reproduced the problem to the extent that I can't
successfully get into pine again. ( continuing the interrupted
composition, as suggested, also freezes. ) 

I have exited with a "kill -HUP" from another window.
When I tried a "kill -QUIT" instead, I get a message 
from Pine "Emergency Exit ... :" , the cursor has moved
to the correct position to answer the question, but I can't
type anything. ( i.e. no echo and no response ) 

[ I have also retrieved the latest aix32  pico binary , and it is 
  identical to the one I have installed. ] 

The tail end of ~/.pine-debug1 ( from the HUP exit ) contains:

Debug output of the Pine program (at debug level 2).  Version 3.89

Steve,

Can you repeat this test with the "-d9" option set and send the whole 
thing to [email-masked]?  (no need to bother pine-info with 
the gorey details)

Thanks for the report!
