Sorry, I accidentally deleted the replies in my mailbox, so I'll respond here. I've tried running sudo /bin/sh and exiting immediately. There isn't any hang, so it shouldn't be a sudo bug. I see the same hang over SSH if I fork a process without sudo. Adding -f to ssh like Kevin suggested solved the problem.
