Description Jeff Johnson 2002-08-31 17:44:04 UTC 
rpm-4.1 runs with signals blocked, hoping to get to
a "safe" point to exit (and close the database).

There's little reason to keep this bug open anymore.

The good news is that rpm-4.2-0.28nptl (probably, untested as
of this moment) fixes the stale lock problem.

The bad news is that you need to run a kernel that supplies
/dev/futex, and a version of glibc that supplies nptl.
