Thanks @Nathan. I appreciated your explanations, even though the mods considered them spam and removed them. Your comment about slower computers having more lag, and therefore seeing more of this issue—particularly in 1.5 which is a bit slower—made a lot of sense. My FPS is around 20, so lots of escapes 8-(

It's got a lot worse for me since 1.5: my crowded pens of chickens are having regular escapes (walls of wooden fence, fence gates, and cobblestone).

The wiki's not as clear as it could be:
MC-2025is listed under bugs still outstanding.Having exactly the same hang on an older MacBook Pro. Mojang also refused to accept my report as a bug.
MC-14774Thanks for the real response Grum, doesn't sound like a technical support issue to me.
Coming up blank how to find the launcher version, but I did update it fairly recently so MC would run 64-bit Java.
Inside the app package MinecraftLauncher.jar is 97825 bytes.
Thanks GrygrFlzr, have downloaded the new-look launcher. Will report back, but the hang is occasional so will take me a while to be sure.
Well I said I'd report back, but I've barely had a chance to play MC 8-(
I'll file another bug if it crashes again.
