I would not suspect the kernel recompile. I would suspect a script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d

Make sure there aren't any scripts in that directory that could prompt
you for input, etc. For example, on one of my boxes, I run
apache+mod_ssl, the machine "freezes" at the local package
initialization section because it is prompting me for an SSL passphrase
(but the output is being directed to /dev/null, so I don't see the
prompt).

Try running each of the scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d just to make
sure.
