That's usually an indication of something waiting for input.  Try typing CTRL-D
and see if things progress further.  Either that or type:

make < nul

I'm not suggesting that this is a fix but if things move along with this method
it means that something like sed is trying to read from standard input rather
than a file.  You'll have to debug your makefile to figure out exactly what
is causing this.
