Hello,

I have some small slight issue with the cobalt_assert_nrt function,
incase a violation is detected the thread should get a signal,
but the implementation will implicitly get a signal during the execution of 
pthread_kill, see:


#0  getpid () at ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:60
#1  0x00007fc1dc4fa0d6 in __pthread_kill (threadid=<optimized out>, signo=24) 
at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pthread_kill.c:53
#2  0x00007fc1dc8b2470 in callAssertFunction () at 
/home/lano/git/preload_checkers/src/pchecker.h:199
#3  malloc () at /home/lano/git/preload_checkers/src/pchecker_heap_glibc.c:220
#4 <actual instrumented function>

You see, the signal should happen with the pc of #2, not from the 
implementation of glibc (or whatever c library).
So the function should be changed to:

void cobalt_assert_nrt(void)
{
            if (cobalt_should_warn())
                        __cobalt_pthread_kill(pthread_self(), SIGDEBUG);
}

(or even replaced with the raw syscall ?)

Regards,
Norbert
