Exactly, thats why I feel lost here now.  I do not see any thread
waiting for mutex.

Thanks for confirming that...I was working on this theory, but still
dont find reason.

I have single thread handling this data in std::map. This thread waits
on select, and gets notified from other threads through pipe (as
mentioned earlier).  Main thread wakes up, and processes requests.

I am not creating any other thread. I am not passing any functions for
callback. I am not supplying pointers to this std::map structures. This
remains a mystery for me, why app should get in endless loop in STL lib
only.
