Iit could come from the fact that darwinbuild does not seem to use latest and recently released kext_tools when building xnu. As a result, it compiles but does not resolve dynamic / external dependencies related to the apple profile kexts and when running on 10.6.2, will timeout except if we disable these kexts.

Problem solving suggestion: Latest darwinbuild should probably build and install the latest kext_tools used by apple and also check for its availability as a mandatory dependency before building the xnu 10C540 kernel (maybe other 10.6 prev. kernel as well).

darwinbuild does use the latest kext_tools. If the steps from darwin-kernel solved your problem then it is not a bug in darwinbuild.
