My testing RHEL5 box running 64bit multilib does exhibit this problem with -pingboost. Note it does have both nptl and linuxthreads support built into glibc. It also uses a 2.6.16 kernel. My gentoo boxes are using glibc2.4 which only support nptl and are using 64bit multilib on a 2.6.16 kernel. The Gentoo boxes (used anywhere we have full control of the machines) do not exhibit the problem at all. Our RHEL4 boxes do not have the problem at all. (they are used where we do not have 100% control of the boxes.)
