I found something funny in the strace. dmake *and* tcsh are waiting
on something:

186919618 187255700 [sig] dmake 2436 talktome: pid 632 wants some information

and later in the file:

186869833 187019671 [sig] tcsh 2724 talktome: pid 632 wants some information

Plus some more "talktome: pid 632 wants some information" lines later. Not really
knowing what's going on here I would speculate that they are coming from some
  wait(&status);
command. (At least that's most propably the place where it's "hanging" in
dmake).
