Greetings.

I attach the code sample, which expected behaviour is:

  1. to periodically restart thread, which executes «sleep 1s» with
  system* call;

  2. and then to check if it should repeat the execution.
  
The flag, which controls that re-execution is managed by another thread
through atomic-box primitive.

The code does not run as expected: the sleep executing sleep starts
once, and change seems to remain invisible to main thread.

The code works as expected, when:

  1. (sleep 1) is used instead (system* "sleep" "1s");
  2. running the code on x86_64 cpus.

The use of affinity mask

  taskset 0x01 guile test.scm

does not help.
