Here is more detailed information to demo the infinite loop due to corruption of the list, using one "-g" compiled cygwin1.dll in my cygwin:

Adding lock protection in List_insert (removing lock-freee)
or implementing a complete lock-free List based on
Harris's solution to use two CAS?
First of all, please, please, please fix your
MUA! Just like your
mails to
cygwin-patches a couple of weeks ago, your mails are
pretty
much unreadable due to broken line
wrapping.
Back to business:
This code is working since 2003. So, is that just
a theoretical problem, or a practical one? If
the latter, what is
broken exactly?
However, since you're
asking, a lockless implementation where appropriate
is always welcome.
Thanks,
Corinna
