Subject:	Re: loop in pthread_cond_broadcast
References:	<3AEF04AC DOT 62D56B1B AT trex DOT rtpnc DOT epa DOT gov>

Loop in function pthread_cond_broadcast was apparently caused by
pthread_cond method Broadcast decrementing the thread waiting count,
but the thread waiting count is also decremented when the thread wakes
up in __pthread_cond[timed]wait.  These routines are in thread.cc.

Many thanks to Rob Collins for committing a patch; the fix will be
available in 1.3.2, as I understand. 

Greg
