My last attempt to compile Emacs hanged with the last output

  make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/emacs-lp/bld/emacs/trunk/nt'
  Successfully remade target file `bootstrap'.

It is somewhere here:

    make --debug=b bootstrap 2>&1 | tee %trace-tmp%
    @findstr /m /c:"Error 2" %trace-tmp%
    @if %errorlevel% EQU 0 goto end
    cd %curr-wd%

    @if "%2"=="mkbootstrap" goto end
:mkinfo
    @echo.
    @echo.
    @echo **************************************************************
    @echo *** make info
    @echo **************************************************************

I have no idea about what it is waiting for. The latest days when I
have seen this it is usually a subprocess, but here I have no idea
what it could be. It looks like it is tee.exe that hangs here, but I
am not sure. (It used to work. Killing tee.exe stopped the build, but
it is a bit complicated by the fact that there are two tee processes.
I might have killed the wrong one or it is something else involved.)

Any hints? Anyone else seeing this kind of trouble on w32 lately?
