I've just had a similar hanging experience. This happened when I tried
to run alexnadria on a box which could not connect to the cvs repository
as it was not connected to the internet. I think this could be a problem
with the cvs task in ant not returning under these curcumstances.

Have you tried checking the logs dir for the cvs.co.*.error and
cvs.co.*.out files as these should 
contain the output from the cvs command.
