The reason for the lockup is that the cleanup handlers pthread_cond_wait
and the cleanup handler your code register are not executed in the
correct order.  And this happens because you are using the LinuxThreads
headers.  If you'd use the NPTL headers everything would work fine.

Since we unfortunately cannot pull the plug on the LT headers yet Jakub
came up with a patch which should handle this case.  The current CVS has
it, as will future releases and updates.
