You can try running gdb on bash from another terminal, attaching to the
hanging bash process with `attach <pid>', and generating a backtrace from
gdb. That would at least give you the call stack.
Make sure to run the bash instance you're testing with `--noprofile --norc'
to get as vanilla an environment as possible.
