** Description changed:

  - malloc sleeps continously when the mallocstress application which part of 
ltp package is executed in a loop.
  - From gdb backtrace it appears to be for a futex to be released in libc 
code. This is deadlock in glibc
  
- There are some discussions going on for including this fix in next eglibc 
release.
