We installed glibc-2.3.2-27.9.7 and unset LD_ASSUME_KERNEL.
And the problem starts to occur.

This problem is most likely caused by a race between
pthread_cond_wait() and pthread_cond_signal() on RH-9 with NPTL.

We will set up AS-3 and retest. Will update the bug report with
the status on AS-3 box.

The problem is not reproducible on AS-3 box. That proves Hui's theory
that the bug is in  customer  9's kernel.

N/A

Likely an NPTL or kernel futex bug. Will try RHEL-3.

The problem does not happen on RedHat AS3.0. it's not a bug from our (J2SE)
side.

If the broblem is caused by this:
