This seems to be the problem. I already sent the information to Yair 
Zaslavsky (and Daniel Erez) who contacted me off-list about this (though I 
think this really belongs on the list so everybody can chime in).
I attached the output I get. At the end I had to kill the process because 
memory usage was at about 99%.

The command I'm running is: mvn install -Pgwt-admin,gwt-user
The system monitor shows cpu usage very low (up to the problematic point 
the build seems to spend 90% of its time trying to download jar files from 
bogus sources) and memory usage increasing slightly as expected until the 
build reaches that last problematic part where all cpu cores go to 100% and 
memory usage increases until all memory is consumed.
