While running the Python regression test suite, I believe I have
uncovered a 1.5.10-3 pthreads regression.  The test_threadedtempfile
test case now hangs:

    $ python /usr/lib/python2.3/test/regrtest.py -v test_threadedtempfile
    test_threadedtempfile
    Creating
    Starting
    Reaping

Specifically, test_threadedtempfile appears to hang during a "join"
operation:

    print "Reaping"
    ok = errors = 0
    for t in threads:
        t.join()
        ok += t.ok_count
        errors += t.error_count
        if t.error_count:
            print '%s errors:\n%s' % (t.getName(), t.errors.getvalue())

    msg = "Done: errors %d ok %d" % (errors, ok)

Under 1.5.9-1, test_threadedtempfile did not hang and completed
successfully.

I'm sorry for not be more helpful, but it is the best I can do at the
moment...

Thanks,
Jason
