I am trying to emerge mono-0.31. With both the original ebuild and the somewhat changed mono-0.31-r1 the compilation process hangs on this: make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mcs-0.31/class/I18N/Common' make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mcs-0.31/class/I18N/West' Creating ../../../build/deps/I18N.West.dll.makefrag ... make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mcs-0.31/class/I18N/West' make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mcs-0.31/class/I18N/West' touch ../../../build/deps/I18N.West.dll.stamp MONO_PATH="../../../class/lib:$MONO_PATH" /var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mono-0.31/mono/mini/mono ../../../mcs/mcs.exe /r:mscorlib.dll /r:I18N.dll -d:NET_1_1 -d:ONLY_1_1 -g /noconfig /target:library /out:../../../class/lib/I18N.West.dll @I18N.West.dll.sources After that, nothings happens anymore and my system is completely idle. With pstree I can see that portage has called "lt-mono" (through several recursive makes) but the process does not seem to do anything. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge mono-0.31 or mono-0.31-r1 2. 3. Actual Results: The compilation process hangs when mcs is used to compile some I18N dll.

Now here comes the funny part: I tried it out again with unmerging the existing mono before, but that didn't change anything, it hung at some dll compilation again. But then I cancelled the build with ctrl-c and reran the makefile in /var/tmp/portage/mono-0.31-r1/work/mcs-0.31/ and it completed the DLL where it hung before and went on until some other dll where it stalled again. I had to cancel and resume the build about 5-10 times, but in the end it was compiled and I could install it, it seems to be working too. This seems to be a problem with mono itself.
Just wanted to add a quick me too.

Looks like 2 contention for 2 different locks to me... (Misc thoughts: Both machines where this has been reported are pretty beefy. Both are using NTPL, and I bet that both have Hyperthreading enabled).
Another bug that has been idle for 3 months ;) Can you tell us if you still have that problem when you use your curent gcc to compile a current (>=0.91) mono version?
I upgraded from mono-0.30 (which I could compile by manually restarting the compilation over and over again - it always hung one file later ;-)) in steps to 0.95 (currently) and didn't experience the problem again. I just tried to recompile and it works also - seems to have been fixed somehow. Just to point it out btw, it didn't hang while compiling mono with gcc but when compiling some mono-library (i18n thingie) using the mcs compiler. Could you close the bug if you feel like that? ;-)
Okay, done.
