No, I still don't have the answer, but I came across a very interesting
bit in the `info' files for glibc-2.1.3.  Under a heading "Specific Advice
for Linux Systems", along with a bunch of info about installing glibc,

Now, they are talking about 2.0 and I assume everyone here running Linux
is running 2.2.  However it makes one wonder whether all the bugs in
kernel-side thread support are really fixed in 2.2.  One of these days
