deadlock in signal handler with NPTL


Hi,

I got the following test program. I know, it is very ugly and there
are a lot of things somebody should not do, but this is something
what programs like sshd are doing.

The problem is: This program deadlocks very fast in a FUTEX_WAIT
call. This does not happen with LinuxThreads.

Any ideas what goes wrong?

  Thorsten
