I've been on a heavy that did a go-around. The pilot said that another
plane blundered onto the runway.

The same here, with the same announcement on the intercom.
However, since I'm always observing the approaches, I noticed shortly before
the pilot did the go-around that he was way too high. From my window seat,
I couldn't see if there was another plane on the runway, but I doubt it.
