[issues] Regression cause by patch PR nptl/3270

[Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

EGLIBC has a patch to fix PR nptl/3270, unfortunately, it breaks 
libgnomevfs, causing iceweasel or epiphany to hang in certain 
conditions. Here is the corresponding changelog:

2008-02-23  Daniel Jacobowitz  <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

	PR nptl/3270
	nptl/
	* allocatestack.c (setxid_mark_thread, setxid_unmark_thread): New.
	(setxid_signal_thread): Return a successful signal indicator.  Just
	skip threads without SETXID_BITMASK.
	(__nptl_setxid): Use separate marking and unmarking loops.  Repeat
	signalling if necessary.
	* init.c (sighandler_setxid): Use atomic operations for
	cancelhandling.  Wake __nptl_setxid last.

And here is the backtrace I get:

| Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

| #6  0x00007f6f5e28fb56 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libgnomevfs-2.so.0

Any idea what can be wrong in this patch?

Thanks,
Aurelien
