I'll need more information to help you debug the situation.  One first step: 
be sure you're running a non-stripped version of the rsync executable (so that
it has debug symbols) and when it hangs, attach gdb to the middle process of
the 3 (for a local copy) or the first of 2 (on the receiving side of a remote
copy).  Then, ensure it is the generator and output a backtrace:

  gdb rsync 12345
  p am_generator
  bt
  p *first_flist
  p *cur_flist

I may be able to figure out the hang by knowing where it happened, but may need
more info than that.

If you would be willing to generate a core-dump of the generator process, that
would allow me to diagnose the hang more fully.  E.g. run "ulimit -c unlimited"
before starting rsync, and then from inside the right attached process (via
gdb) execute the "signal 11" command to make it dump core (or run "kill 11
12345" from the command-line).  Then, gzip the core file and send it to me as
an attachment in a private email.
