Description
Hello,
we noticed a problem in Debian buildd machines, where sometimes the build of mpl with python3.4 stuck at:
python3.4 ./setup.py build
============================================================================
Edit setup.cfg to change the build options
BUILDING MATPLOTLIB
matplotlib: yes [1.4.2]
python: yes [3.4.2 (default, Oct 8 2014, 12:51:46) [GCC
4.9.1]]
platform: yes [gnukfreebsd9]
REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES AND EXTENSIONS
numpy: yes [version 1.8.2]
six: yes [using six version 1.8.0]
dateutil: yes [using dateutil version 2.2]
pytz: yes [using pytz version 2012c]
tornado: yes [using tornado version 3.2.2]
pyparsing: yes [using pyparsing version 2.0.3]
pycxx: yes [Official versions of PyCXX are not compatible
with matplotlib on Python 3.x, since they lack
support for the buffer object. Using local copy]
libagg: yes [pkg-config information for 'libagg' could not
be found. Using local copy.]
freetype: yes [version 2.5.2]
png: yes [version 1.2.50]
qhull: yes [pkg-config information for 'qhull' could not be

OPTIONAL SUBPACKAGES

E: Caught signal ‘Terminated’: terminating immediately
make: *** [build-3.4-stamp] Terminated
debian/rules:32: recipe for target 'build-3.4-stamp' failed
Build killed with signal TERM after 150 minutes of inactivity
(which got killed after 150 mins).
For now this has happened on kfreebsd-i386[1], s390x[2], i386[3] from early 1.4.1RC releases[4](the 'maybe-failed' entries)

this is currently prevent matplotlib to be build on all Debian release architectures and thus reaching testing and Jessie for the freeze.
