Not much of a debugging, but:
The problem is caused by these lines in UI/UserInterface.py, cca line 800:

        # Create the terminal
        self.terminalDock = self.__createDockWindow("TerminalDock")
        self.terminal = Terminal(self.viewmanager, self.terminalDock)
        self.__setupDockWindow(self.terminalDock, 
Qt.elf.terminalDockottomDockWidgetArea,
                             self.terminal, self.trUtf8("Terminal"))

If I comment the Terminal() line (and pass None in the next one), 
everything is OK, else eric suspends a moment afterwards. These are 
processes in suspended state, run from terminal:

 1001 96408 93381  24  99  0 58188 46460 select T     p2    0:01.45 
/usr/local/bin/python /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/eric4/eric4.py
 1001 96415 96408   0  96  0  4388  2256 -      T     p2    0:00.01 bash -i

If I send SIGKILL to the bash process, I can then SIGCONT eric and it 
starts normally. When I first SIGCONT eric without killing bash, it 
suspends again.

When I start eric from gnome panel etc., it starts, but the bash process 
consumes all available CPU before I SIGKILL it.

I have terminal window turned off in eric, btw.

I have this behaviour with:
eric4-4.3-snapshot-20090201
qt4*-4.4.3
py25-qt4*-4.3.3_2,1
py25-qt4-qscintilla2-2.2_2,1
qscintilla2-2.2_2,1

on FreeBSD7
