I found no weird things in /etc/sysctl.conf and /boot/loader.conf. A poudriere run might cause a hang in something as simple as compiling openssl. So I tried to upgrade the BIOS and it worked. The system has been compiling for about 24 hours now without any problem. I noticed that upgrade went from AMI BIOS version 5.13 to 5.14. I have another system with a different brand motherboard still at 5.13. I will at some point check if that one has the same issue. For now my problem seems to be solved. I never suspected that a major release of an operating system would require a BIOS update.
