both hang on the same command:

/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
-rpath /cygdrive/c/sds/src/top-mingw/lib -version-info 2:3:0 -lc
-no-undefined  -o libsigsegv.la -rpath
/cygdrive/c/sds/src/top-mingw/lib handler.lo stackvma.lo leave.lo
dispatcher.lo version.lo

ps :

/usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/ssh-agent
/usr/bin/make
/usr/bin/make
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/make
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sed
/usr/bin/ps

(there is no top or pstree).
I think the command hands in sed - at least no gcc is running and I am
not running sed anywhere else.
(actually, traversing ppid and pid tells me that sed is a descendant of a make)

gdb says:

(gdb) where
#0  0x7d61002e in strchr () from /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/ntdll.dll
#1  0x7d6671d1 in ntdll!RtlUshortByteSwap ()
   from /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/ntdll.dll
#2  0x00000000 in ?? ()
