It's been stuck there for about 15 minutes now (Core2 Duo 2.53GHz machine with
4GB RAM, it's not slow ;)).

`top` reports:

I turned on debug and superdebug (can attach those if you want, they are 215MB
and 2.1GB uncompressed, respectively) and see this repeating:

++ find /tmp/liblock-0 -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name 'cast.*'
++ sed 's/.*\/cast\.//'
++ head -n 1
+ local FILE=
+ '[' ']'
+ return 1
+ sleep 1
+ let DELAY--
+ (( DELAY>0 ))
+ any_voyeur

After about another 15 minutes it will finally continue, but then get stuck
later on again. I stopped this run at nasm, but the other two runs got stuck
again for about an hour or so after html-parser.
