 The only system I have to test it on is:
 gcc -v
 Using built-in specs.
 Configured with: FreeBSD/alpha system compiler
 Thread model: posix
 gcc version 3.2.1 [FreeBSD] 20021009 (prerelease)
 
 Under this system it does not appear to hang as the buildworld works 
 correctly (assuming the authors didn't change the command to build 
 that particular part). It would take some work to find where and how 
 to run the command that caused the problem originally and I don't 
 know if/when I could get to it.
