Hello all,

a user has posted[1] a problem to the comp.programming.threads group, that
he get EPERM errors in a child atfork handler from a pthread_mutex_unlock
with an error checking mutex.

There is some code to test this. I can reproduce this in a ubuntu 7.04
i386 system.

Please have a look at this thread and give a comment on this issue..

Thank you.

Regards.
Bert Wesarg
