Yes, on OS X 10.4.11, occasionally maxima.py hangs, as well as e.g. decorate.py. These hangs are sporadically, and happen sometimes if the system is loaded, e.g. during a "make test". If you run these test "standalone", they almost always pass OK. Probably some Mac OS X 10.4 specific system issue --- no one ever was able to hunt it down (although Michael Abshoff had sacrificed a notable amount of time to these maxima/pexpect issues).
