This might not be the same bug ... but I do have a definite 100% reproducible bug (latest git kernel, old version of strace (4.5.15-1.el4.1)) Run: $ strace -o logit -f make in any directory where make is actually going to have to do some work. You'll see that the command hangs after make outputs the first action that it will take. Looking at the stack traces of the 3 processes involved it seems that make forked, the child stopped in ptrace waiting for some action from strace, but strace isn't woken from its sleep in wait().
