[xbmc-git] Hangs during initiallization

I've updated my system and xbmc-git install on 11/02  previous system update before that was 10/30 (no xbmc-git) update.

Now when launching xbmc it sits and hangs, it doesn't get far enough to start the xbmc log.
I've run strace through it and have attached gdb to the running pid.

I think I lack the skills to properly use GDB but there was no backtrace.

Strace I'm not sure how to interpret the output.  I snipped some of the log at the end but it looks like there is an issue with the child?
also the last line is what it just waits on, no extra output.

Any help on how to proceed next would be amazing. 
Thanks

Re: [xbmc-git] Hangs during initiallization

Sometimes you just need to wait for the new check it and rebuild git packages in general.  There are no assurances that any given commit will render a stable build.

Re: [xbmc-git] Hangs during initiallization

That was my thought which is why I'd tried it several times before posting this

Wasn't sure if there wasn't something I hadn't tried yet that might be an lead me to something that is helpful in either filing a bug with xbmc or if its package interaction on my system.
