thnx for the report!

can you please try these things:

1) update to RELENG_7 (some fixes went into it after 7.0R)

2) can you test this patch: www.vlakno.cz/~rdivacky/linux_nptl.patch

3) can you provide ktrace/linux_kdump trace of what's going on?


also.. is maple threaded? is anything (linuxulator related) printed in messages?

thnx!
