Does that patch fixes it ?

tested with kernel .17 and headers from .19 and the build hangs. Still tons of
Zl processes around.

On the note building with kernel .19 and .19 headers it all goes smooth.

Ok, so there's a different issue from what I've found. You haven't by
chance noted what those processes are (which test case typically) ?
Also, there's a sysrq to get a backtrace of all pending processes,
though I don't remember which one off the top of my mind, might be
useful to have a look though.

Ben.

Added also dmesg+sysrq.txt at the same url.
