Interestingly enough, I have run into the 'Unable to compile' problem building the latest git on MacOSX. Maybe there is corruption in my git pull, but this started yesterday....
It appears that configure never fully finishes and config.status loops.

I don't have that problem... And I've been experimenting with clang as my compiler!
By the way, I never use git pull. I always do git fetch; git rebase origin, which is what you're supposed to do anyway if you have local patches in your tree.
Another thing I do is run autoreconf, because I have local changes to configure.ac in my tree. That might have something to do with it.
I have noticed a change in configure behavior, though. config.status creates the makefiles during make, not configure. I find that odd, but it still works, so I'm happy.
