Subj : Re: Either I'm stupid, or NPTL 0.29 on RH9 is broken! To : comp.programming.threads From : Greg Law Date : Wed Jan 26 2005 12:52 am Yes, even while not holding mutex. I even tried a sleep there -- same result! But note I can only reproduce this with NPTL 0.29. I realise this is somewhat old, but it's still what you get on a Redhat 9 system that is freshly "up2date-ed". Looks like it's LD_ASSUME_KERNEL on that one, then! :-) .
