I'd say that you are getting a bad line of code in there about where it
stops. The problem is that the EMC you are running doesn't always
display the current error messge so you don't see what is happening.

If you change the debug line in your ini file from

DEBUG = 0x00000003

to

DEBUG = 0x7FFFFFFF

and then start the emc using a terminal in the /usr/local/emc directory
you will see the motion command messages printed in the terminal window
and can figure out about which line is causing problems.

My bet's on a g0, g1, or g2 on a line with no x, y, or z position.
