Bug 21108

I found that when endl is output to ostream, 
the locks sometimes are not freed. 
If two or more threads do output to
stderr, it finally results in deadlock. 
Somehow, one has to output more than one endl.
It does not work with "\n", only with endl.

The minimal version of this bug is manifest even in single-threaded
application compiled with -lpthread, though.
Here is an example:

//////////    Code starts here /////////
#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
//
//  Compile:
//
//     g++ -g -o t t.cc -lpthread
//
 
 
int lock_count ()
{
    return ((pthread_mutex_t *)stderr->_lock)->__m_count ;
}
 
main ()
{
    cerr << "BEFORE endls: lock count = " << lock_count ();
    cerr << endl << endl;   // Does not work with only 1 endl
    cerr << "AFTER: lock count = " << lock_count () << endl;
 
} 

////////////////   Code ends here   ////////////////


On my system, it produces the following output: 
-------------------------------------------------
avs % ./t
BEFORE endls: lock count = 0
 
AFTER: lock count = 1    
------------------------------------------------
So the lock is not released, as you can see.
