In your original letter you said you used the standard article template, so I assume your problem isn’t just with the ‘aeneid_book.tex’, right?

[...] Is there any way I could get some more debugging output on this?

You can press ⌥⌘U with the output window open, that should show you the source of what it is displaying. Maybe there is something in that which can shed some light on it.

You can also run something like `ps` to see which processes are running, that might show if pdflatex is the thing stalling, or if any commands are still being run by TextMate, e.g. use the following options for parent PID: ps -axww -o "ppid,pid,command="

Also maybe you could provide more details, like, has this ever worked for you? What if you create a new account and test it there, does that work?
