How do you deal with Hungering Cold as a multiboxer in areana?

Hungering Cold is a Death knight ('http://www.wowwiki.com/Death_knight') ability that allows the death knight to freeze all enemies within 10 yds.

Every match against a death knight -- or better yet 2 death knights results in this -- AOE hungering cold shuts down my entire team and the other team picks one target and burns them down while the others are frozen -- then repeat and do it again if there's a second DK on the opposing team but even with just one -- a complete shut down for 10 seconds, wtf.

Well, it's a stun of some sort and you can thunderstorm through it (at least you could on the PTR).
And trinket out of it after that

Use a paladin who can cleanse it?

Isnt the spell range like 10 yards btw?

5 Shamans was hard to box in the arena before WOTLK so it cant be easier now!

It's definitely painful. What I was doing with my shaman healer was trying to bait the DK out in the open - they're usually stupid agressive when they approach and we'll AOE earthbind him. Purge his AMS and then go to town on him. If he gets cleansed, lay another castsequenced earthbind, then open up. My healer dual specced to Elemental and baited him/thunderstormed him and then earthbind him to take him out. The whole thing is to avoid him in the first place - it's only a 10 yard spell.

But yeah if your team get's frozen it's pretty damned annoying.
