GThread ERROR 'No such process'

I'm running Taroon with all the latest updates on a dual opteron 240
(x86_64) machine.

I've been trying to update to vanilla kernel 2.4.22, and while that
compiles fine, when trying to log in to X (with a Gnome session) I get a
box that says:

"Your session only lasted less then [sic] 10 seconds. If you have not
logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation
problem or that you may be out of diskspace. Try logging in with one of
the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem."

Then if I click "View details (~/.xsession-errors file)" it shows the
following:

GThread ERROR **: file gthread-posix.c: line 135 (): error 'No such
process' during 'pthread_getschedparam (pthread_self(), &policy,
&sched)'
aborting...

Then it logs me out.

I can log in OK with a KDE session or a failsafe session. I also get the
same with a vanilla 2.4.23-pre6 kernel, but if I reboot with the Red Hat
2.4.21-3.ELsmp kernel, Gnome works fine.

Could this be something in my kernel config, or is a Red Hat kernel
patch required to make threads work?

# rpm -q glib2
