Unfortunately, I won't have the time to debug further for a
while. And,
to be honest, I'm lacking the motivation too...
I _suspect_ that this is related to the PTHREAD mutex change in
the 1.5.18 release.
So perhaps it wasn't benign for Python, but just didn't show up in
the Python self-tests.
At least, that it what I gather from you being able to reproduce
the bug.
semaphore::_trywait doesn't have anything to do with pthread
mutexes, AFAIK.
I don't know. When I saw the Python message it seemed plausible.
The real issue is that Python broke with 1.5.18, either because of
the pthread change or not.
Be that as it may, should I report this bug in another forum?
