hi-

 Has anybody else experienced strange problems with pthread mutexes on
SMP linux?

 I'm running a RedHat 6.0 based x86 machine on a dual pentium-MMX tyan
motherboard (no, I know better than to overclock.  I'm dense, not
stupid...).

 What I'm seeing are rare, but repeatable cases where mutexes allow more
that one thread to enter a protected block of code.  Also, the C++ 'new'
function sometimes aborts with an 'out of virtual memory' error.  An
obvious question is: is glib thread-safe ?
