That may not be long enough -- there are a *lot* of tests.  The tests
write a log file in src/check.log -- as long as that file is getting
bigger, the tests are still running.  There are some intentional delays
of up to one minute during the tests, so don't pull the plug too
quickly.

If it really is hung, the end of the log file should identify the
culprit test.  You might also want to use "top" or "ps" to see what, if
anything, the hung test is doing.
