We can certainly revert my patch that speeds up the do_install(), but I 
would prefer not to do it blindly: it's much better to first firmly 
establish that the patch is indeed the reason for the never ending 
do_install (I can't imagine why, but it certainly could be). So please 
do try to get some logs, or a stable way to reproduce.
