Builds 180, 181, 182, 183 have teh same behaviour for me. Hudson checks out
everything from svn and then just waits. In that situation after clicking the
Red X button (that is supposed to cancel the build) the Hudson build gets
unstuck and continues (without canceling the build).

I had rolled back to 179 and build no longer gets stuck after the svn checkout.

I'm guessing it somehow related to 1244 as I have problems before with "no
changes" builds.

Environments is Solaris 10, Hudson runnning as a root application in Tomcat.
