It is a bug with futex (only occurs with POSIX threads support and
glibc 2.5 or 2.6). I have inform David Miller, but I don't know if he
has found a solution. I have seen that a minor bug in futex has been
fixed on git, but I haven't tested.
I have only seen this bug on U60 and U80, never on U2, and few programs
hang (iceape [and all softwares from seamonkey suite], clamd, bind,
milter-greylist, mimedefang...).
