Thanks!  I suspect that we are not quite safe for the SMP case, yet.

There was some refactoring that went into git master a couple days ago; it 
looks like the freebsd-specific code needs a few tweaks to compile. You 
coul revert back to the 1.5.74 release branch, but it looks like Derrick 
has committed a fix since you reported this, so why don't you 'make clean' 
and try again?

(I do not expect the hangs experienced previously to have been fixed, 
though.)
