>Description:
A program compiled with -pthread will hang during startup if resources are low.
Using gcore the following backtrace was extracted from such a process:

(gdb) bt
#0  0x280c5660 in _thread_sig_handle_pending () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#1  0x280c50eb in _thread_sig_handler () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#2  0xbfbfffac in ?? ()
#3  0x281000f8 in _thread_leave_cancellation_point () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#4  0x28100445 in _thread_leave_cancellation_point () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#5  0x28100b5d in malloc () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#6  0x280cbbd4 in _thread_init () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#7  0x2810157c in _thread_init_invoker::_thread_init_invoker () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#8  0x281015b5 in _thread_init_invoker::_thread_init_invoker () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#9  0x281015de in _thread_init_invoker::_thread_init_invoker () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#10 0x2810160c in _thread_init_invoker::_thread_init_invoker () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#11 0x28088caa in _init () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
#12 0x2804f978 in _rtld () from /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1

The process is running (state "R") and therefore  consumes CPU resources.

>How-To-Repeat:
        Run a program compiled with -pthread and dynamicly linked with other libraries in an environment with low memory resources. Sometimes it will lock.
