Bug 5058

in debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/443660 was reported a crash due to 
dgettext in a multi-threaded context.

It was reported that when it crashes (as it seems to be a race, it's hard to) 
a valgrind trace looks like that:

THe second block looks indeed fishy, as I seem to understand that the realloc 
is perfomed on a shared data, without locking.
