Description of problem: phthread_self() produces incorrect results

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.9-1.6_FC2
glibc-2.3.3-27.1

How reproducible: I compiled program from 
http://web.umr.edu/~ercal/284/thread_ex1F.c

gcc thread_ex1F.c -lpthread
or with -D_REENTRANT
after
./a.out

I tried more simple program with the same incorret thread ID.

I cannot deside what is going wrong.
