[wtjones@widowmaker.com] libc/836: There appears to be a bug in the sigmask handling in Linuxthreads.

[Andreas Jaeger]

Here's another bug report which I don't know how to handle.  The
information is to vague to reproduce it - but has anybody an idea what 
might be the problem?

Uli, you write in the FAQ:
} 2.23.   When I use nscd the machine freezes.
} 
} {UD} It is well known that you cannot use nscd with Linux 2.0.*.  There
} is functionality missing in the kernel and work-arounds are not suitable.
} Beside this some parts of the kernel are too buggy when it comes to using
} threads.
} 
} So you have the possibilities to run Linux 2.0.* or update to a higher
} version and start using nscd.

Might it be that the bug is a bug of Linux 2.0.35 and not of
glibc/linuxthreads?
