That's bizarre.  Here are some things I'd try:

  * Do a "ps" and see what process is at the bottom of the heap,
    i.e. the one that's actually hung.  If it's gcc/as/ld, that's
    one path.  If it's make, that's another.

  * Try using gmake instead of make.

  * Get the latest gcc (2.93.3, I think) and try that.

  * Try lowering the optimization level from -O2 to nothing (no -O
    option at all).
