Comment (by teor):

 How verbose are the logs?

 Our CI has a 10,000 line log limit, and we're already around 5,000.

 Normally, we would send the logs to a file, then tail them on error. But
 we can't do that if the process hangs, because the tail command would
 never run.

 We may be able to trigger the tail using a sleep command, after the
 process has hung for 50 minutes?
 (Our builds normally take 5-10 minutes.)
