I don't mind whiteboarding. I do mind questions that are puzzles or algorithmic in a way that does not directly reflect the company's current software. I usually (ok, almost always) flesh out designs and pseudocode with pencil and paper anyway, so changing to use a whiteboard isn't an issue. Standing in front of a handful of strangers glaring at me while I try and figure out some stupid algorithm they had to Google themselves is hazing and should be stopped. Edit: Also, dinging me for small syntax issues on a whiteboard when I'm used to using an IDE is not really cool.
