Description Chris Friesen 2010-05-31 23:04:22 UTC 
This is a third-party bug report.

It appears that on RHEL 5.5 a pthread mutex in shared memory cannot be used by a
combination of 32-bit and 64-bit apps.

I realize that posix doesn't guarantee that this will work since they are
technically different programming models, but it seems like a useful capability
to have.

oops, sorry guys.  I tried to reload the bug report but generated a new one.
