I believe the problem is in using a dynamic parameter for the password. No one had thought of this scenario so it isn't tested. Password uses a PrivateString so that it is never printed out to log files. There is an implicit cast String => PrivateString but it isn't triggering in your scenario. This is a bug.
I think the original problem was because CC.Net wouldn't be passing anything to the standard-in of NAnt, therefore the .ReadLine() call would block forever and your build would time out. Are you using triggers with your build, or is it force only? Having dynamic parameters in your source control block will make polling for changes impossible, I think.
