This is currently causing a deadlock in the google-perftools testing.
The fix has been committed to glibc 2.16 - http://cygwin.com/ml/libc-
alpha/2012-01/msg00026.html
It would be great if either glibc could be upgraded to 2.16 or this
patch applied to the version in quantal.
I have verified locally that this resolves the deadlock issue in google-
perftools.
