Subject:	pthread_join() broken on Cygwin 1.5.11-1?

I just upgraded my Cygwin installation to the new 1.5.11-1 release, and now 
one of my applications behaves strangely.

The application in question is multi-threaded. Everything seems to be 
working fine until the application tries to exit. The application consists 
of the main thread and several subordinate (worker) threads. At termination, 
each worker thread calls pthread_exit() and the main thread calls 
pthread_join(thread_id,NULL) on each worker thread. After upgrading to 
1.5.11-1, the pthread_join() no longer returns - the entire application 
immediately exits on the first call to pthread_join().
