There are many linuxthreads problems since lin-thread.c was
introduced. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to track it
down.
This isn't one of them (at least the problem that was origionally
reported by Jim Kingdon). The bug report is from before lin-thread.c
was introduced. As a matter of fact, I have seen a spurious SIGTRAP
on Solaris 2.6 too in the gdb.threads/pthreads test. And I also see
them quite frequently on the Hurd too (where every program is
multithreaded). Looks like there is something wrong in the platform
independent threads code.
As for the "many linuxthreads problems": would you please tell us what
they are. Apart from the spurious SIGTRAPs I'm not aware of any.
