yes
I think it is
show thread (address)
but if yuo can get a coredump it would be best..
in ddb do:
call doadump
in this case it looks like thread 0xc1f2aaf0 has called exit() and is
waiting for the others to exit..
I wonder if the lock is the answer.. it woul dbe good to follow the link
in the mutex in the proc structure at 0xc1a2d8c0
to see which thread OWNS it..
