I suspect these build jobs (see attached) are not really doing anything after 3 or 4 hours? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, that they really do take that long. 

I'm putting on cross-project as a reminder to everyone. And, CC'ing webmasters since at one point, I think they added a time out to all Hudson jobs ... so, wondering if that got "lost" along the way?

I'll close as "not eclipse" since, if I'm remembering mailing lists correctly, cases like this did turn out to have timeout set, but our dear hudson was not working well enough to "see" them. Or, hung while trying to shut them down. Or something. Only cure was apparently are slave restart ... again, if I am remembering right.
