When I try to drop from runlevel 5 to 3 in FC5 by doing a 'sudo init 3', the
X server quits but the init process gets stuck after the following:

INIT: Switching to runlevel: 3
INIT: Sending all processes the TERM signal
Starting readahead_early: Starting background readahead:	[ OK ]
	
[ OK ]
Starting irqbalance:							[ OK
]

Is there any way to drop to runlevel 3 without rebooting?

After running init 3, try changing your virtual terminal, using CTRL-ALT-X,
where you substitute X with one of the F-keys in the F1-F6 range,
e.g. CTRL-ALT-F1.

And try pressing return to get a login prompt too.
