That may ring a bell. Lately, all my arlad crashed unless I compile
with --with-pthreads which in Arlas case makes lwp a wrapper around
pthreads. Pthreads on Linux on the other hand seems to be more stable
nowadays than the house of cards on a folding table in a runaway train
down sherman hill it used to be. So you might find the wrap-pthreads
stuff useful.
