Comment 5 David Howells 2005-09-07 15:59:45 UTC 
I think this is due to de_thread() creating its own signal_struct and filling  
it in for itself rather than calling copy_signal() as it probably ought to.  
  
This means that it bypasses the extra setting up done to initialise the  
keyring pointers - but only in the case of exec'ing from a multithreaded  
program. 
 
Note that the key management facility is not available in U1.
