Which is a bit surprising since the thread in question is
the only one left. All others have gone, maybe one failing to
give up the lock before quitting or just failing to signal?

Ah, that sounds enlightening - in other words I completely missed a
point, here. I admit, I have built GCC as well as my java programs
using default options, am using glibc 2.3.2 as it was supplied with
my Debian/sarge system and am completely unaware of a better alternative
to linuxthreads. Ok, I'll do some reading on how to avoid linuxthreads,
then (is NPTL the alternative?). I'm feeling a little silly, now :-)
Best regards,
