Bug#668240: guitarix: FTBFS(kfreebsd-i386): hangs during waf build

[Steven Chamberlain <steven@pyro.eu.org>]

Package: src:guitarix
Version: 0.22beta2-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid wheezy
User: debian-bsd@lists.debian.org

Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the
past)

Hi,

Builds of guitarix have been seen to hang for kfreebsd-i386, and I've
been able to reproduce this on my own system.

This happens immediately after:

> [154/304] cxx: build/default/libgxwmm/gxwmm/simplevaluedisplay.cc -> build/default/libgxwmm/gxwmm/simplevaluedisplay_80.o
> [155/304] cxx: libgxwmm/gxwmm/init.cc -> build/default/libgxwmm/gxwmm/init_80.o
> [156/304] cxx: build/default/libgxwmm/gxwmm/wrap_init.cc -> build/default/libgxwmm/gxwmm/wrap_init_80.o

I think the hung task is python2.7 (running the waf build system):

> make(76717)───python2.7(76718)─┬─python2.7(77035)
>                                └─python2.7(77015)

> steven   77035  0.0  0.9  24940  9988 ?        S+   05:02   0:00 python ./waf build
> steven   77015  0.0  0.9  23732  9976 ?        S+   05:02   0:00 python ./waf build
> steven   76718  0.4  0.9  24944 10040 ?        S+   05:02   0:02 python ./waf build
> steven   76717  0.0  0.1   3508  1416 ?        S+   05:02   0:00 /usr/bin/make -f debian/rules override_dh_auto_build

The same issue also happened when building 0.21.0-1, but a second
attempt was successful.  So this issue has existed at least since then,
and seems to happen only sometimes.

This issue has not been seen yet on kfreebsd-amd64.
