Well since none of the devlopers know about that site (well i don't, and i'm about the only one who regularly reads the lists ...); its not surprising.

Its hard to tell, perhaps attach with gdb and get a backtrace so we have a clue as to where exactly it is stopping, and file a bug on bugzilla.ximian.com.  Another way to get a backtrace is to send the process a SIGSEGV using kill -SEGV pid, and if you have bugbuddy installed it will step you through submitting a bug report for it.

At worst as a workaround, you may be able to remove (after a backup of course) the particular folder it is upgrading, and try again to see if it goes through.
