Case pthread_cond_broadcast/1-2.c trys to create as many threads and 
processes as possible which will wait on a condition variable.

Unfortunately,if some thread or child process waits overtime(180s) 
since maybe memory is not enough or whatever, it will call FAILED() and 
exit without unlocking a global mutex.

Above-mentioned matter leads to a deadlock when parent process trys to
pthread_mutex_lock the global mutex,and obviously status FAILED cannot 
be reahed by parent process.

This patch fixes the deadlock problem.
