I don't think the answer to that is clear from the reports sent to the
mailing list.  There are also two versions of hang fixes at
    http://www.clari.net/~wayne/rsync-nohang2.patch
at
    http://www.clari.net/~wayne/rsync-nohang2.patch

Please try them out and see if they fix the problem with -v.

You can also try the 2.4.7pre1 snapshot or the current CVS.  Somebody else
asked recently how to get those so I will give that info in a separate
message.  I had been under the impression that Martin had put one of the
nohang patches into the next version already, but I see now that he
hasn't.  I don't recall any other patches related to hanging that might
already be in the pre-release, but it would still be good to try it.
