What do you mean, "crashing"?  The below debug output doesn't indicate a
crash (eg fatal signal) at all.  Do you mean it blocks interruptible? 
Because that is what it indicates.

In this case, it is the file system not responding to the dir_lookup rpc. 
If this is not the root filesystem (it better isn't!), get a filesystem
server with debugging symbols, attach gdb to the filesystem server while
make hangs, and try to find the thread that is stuck, and provide us with
the backtrace of that thread.

I too had some spurious filesystem hangs.  Usually restarting the filesystem
helped, but in some cases I even had to remove certain files under Linux. 
Unfortunately, this bug seems to be very rare...

Thanks,
Marcus
