Bug 146786

Description of problem:
I am observing a crash in pthread_exit() on ES 3.0 when running a 
binary compiled on RH 7.2.

Stack trace:
#0  0xbf7ebc32 in _dl_sysinfo_int80 () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2
#1  0xbf6a8a09 in raise () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6

C++ source code for binary:
See sample.cpp attachment.

Compile System:
Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)
Kernel 2.4.7-10smp on an i686

Compiler version:
gcc-3.2.2 (configured with --enable-languages=c++ --enable-
threads=posix --with-pic --disable-shared)
(Also tried gcc-3.4.3 configured the same way)

Compile command:
g++ sample.cpp -rdynamic -lpthread -o sample

Running the sample on RH 7.2 works fine.  Running the sample on RH ES 
3.0 causes the above-mentioned crash.

- Note the -rdynamic flag.  Without this flag, the crash goes away.
- Note that the sample program contains a call to new.  Without a 
call to new, the crash goes away.  Moving the call to new around 
(global scope, Thread() scope, main() scope at begin/end) doesn't 
change a thing.
- As expected, without the call to pthread_exit(), the crash also 
goes away.

Test system:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon)
Kernel 2.4.21-4.ELsmp on an i686

Test system pthread library:
/lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (as can be seen from stack trace)

Note that if /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 is used instead, there is no 
crash.

How reproducible:
Every Time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile attached sample.cpp on RH 7.2 using gcc 3.2.2 or 3.4.3 
with command: "g++ sample.cpp -rdynamic -lpthread -o sample"
2. Run sample on RH ES 3.0 making sure that it is linking 
against /lib/tls/libpthread.so and not /lib/i686/libpthread.so
  
Actual results:
The sample binary crashed.

Expected results:
The sample binary should have exited normally.
