Bug#377205: libc6: pthread_setcanceltype() hangs intermittent after setlocale().

[Gabriel Sailer <Gabriel.Sailer@siemens.com>]

Hello,

here some additional information to the problem.

The whole system is on a 'read only' file system.
Only '/var' is 'read write'.
We do not use threads in out application.
'locale -a -m' shows
C
de_DE.utf8@euro
en_GB.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX


We have a big problem here. The application controls an large
print roller for a news paper. When the application stops
working the whole manufactory stops working.
Is it possible to bind this application without calling
'pthread_setcanceltype'.

Thanks for _any_ hint.
