If the ABS is freaking out due to packed snow/ice then it is actually a really good idea [to pull the e-brake]. Quickest stop in those conditions is with wheels locked, so provided your are going straight and the speed is low it is highly effective. It has saved my *** from a certain crash more than once, especially in downhill when the rear gets light.
