[...hang here...]
I had this note from the last time I built this port:
alpha*-dec-osf5*; -pthread vfork configuration test hangs
It is documented that thread support is broken for this port. At some
point, --enable-threads was made the default for all (POSIX?) ports.
The situation seems less than ideal for this port.
Try:
./configure --disable-threads
Also, arranging for bash to be used by configure (if not done by
default yet --- there were patches floated to do so) may help.
