  | Does this mean it has two threads, both parked?

Yes.   Or it appears so, but you didn't see my later message, clearly.
Leave off the 'l' option, and try again "ps -s -p 15781" (either now,
if they are still there, or later, when it happens again, using the
pid that is the relevant one that time).

You might also need ps -vs -p 15781 (the relevant pid) - after which you
might need someone else who can assist trawling through either kernel or
process (thread) backtraces to see what is happening.

And, if you haven't already, try the patch Matthew Green sent you, in case
that helps.

I'd just forget emacs, it is a horrible mess.

You should be able to tell that from observing what it does, though
if this particular step is where it (always) stalls, then it quite possibly
might never finish.   If it starts by removing everything, and starting
again, you should probably find target for make which prevents that from
happening (sorry, I have no idea how emacs builds, or how pkgsrc does it,
I have no interest at all in building emacs).
