Is this repeateable?  Did it happen with one file, or with several?

Did you have -partial on?  Does it make a difference?

Did you have SOURCE_CACHE on?  Does it make a difference?

Did you try keys other than ^G (like up-arrow etc.)


What does it do whaen it hangs?  Does it consume CPU time?
What do lsof/truss/strace... say?

And, sorry but I have to ask... did you 'make clean'?
