Humm, I wonder where it hangs. This is the next code part:

        count = 0;
        while (count < DELAYTEN) {
                if (((volatile)mi->mi_flags & MSC_READY) != 0)
                        break;
                if ((j = *mi->mi_sa) & MP_ERR)
                        goto out;
                DELAY(10000);
                count += 1;
        }
        if (count == DELAYTEN) {
out:
                printf("%s: couldn't set ctlr characteristics, sa=%x\n", 
                    mi->mi_dev.dv_xname, j);
                return 1;
        }
        return 0;

so it should jump out after 10 seconds at least.
