+== Hanging commands on Mountain Lion == #hangs
+Mountain Lion made some changes to CoreFoundation, such as the creation of the [http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/CoreFoundation/CoreFoundation.html cfprefsd] daemon. This can cause some processes to hang for users who have logged in as root.
+A patch to solve this issue was committed in r104118 and is available to MacPorts users who are using trunk for their base. It will reach the rest of the MacPorts users once MacPorts 2.2 is released. In the meantime, users experiencing this issue can export `__CFPREFERENCES_AVOID_DAEMON=1` to their shell environment, and then add `__CFPREFERENCES_AVOID_DAEMON` to the environment variables to keep with the `extra_env` option in the user's `macports.conf` file.
