Had a similar but "probably not it" thing, I'll tell you my story in
case it gives you any clues.

A cygwin version of make was being called which would in turn spawn sh.
(Inherited computer at work where the PATH was stuffed up - I think it
may have been a WinAVR version that was being called).

Everything was fine until we had frequent internet dropouts (long story)
and regularly lost connection with our domain. When the internet conn
was down make started stalling.
Not sure what the exact problem was, but it was something like
gethostname timing out when sh started.

Fixing the paths so the correct version of make was called worked for
me. Process Explorer by SysInternals was the key to noticing that sh was
actually running.

HTH

Cheers
Marc
