This is the same issue. The latest checkout hangs because since
rev. 8393 the build script repeatedly tries to remove the built-in CEDET
version, which it cannot do because of path conversion (see below). I
guess I should put some upper limit in there so that it gives up
eventually with a proper error message.

There are no CEDET functions involved here; this is MSYS path conversion
kicking in. Don't use a native MSYS Emacs with Cygwin. Either use Emacs
from Cygwin or the cedet-build.el script for building latest CEDET.
