Blind guess: This document shows a (hideable) warning saying that the
child and master document encoding differ.

Maybe compilation hangs since this warning somehow does not properly
pop up. This would explain that a new userdir makes a difference.

Does it help if you "Clear all session information" in Prefs > Look &

If not, my second try would be clearing converter cache.
