>Environment:
FreeBSD vm7-1-64 7.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE #1: Tue Mar 17 09:07:55 EDT 2009     root@vm.7.1.64:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

QEMU emulation running on Fedora 10.
32 bit library support installed.
5.3/6.3 compatibility libraries installed.
>Description:
The following program will drop core in pthread_create() with an invalid argument error:

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <err.h>

void *thr(void *a)
{
    int *ip = (int *)a;
    printf("started thread %d\n", *ip);
    pause();
    return 0;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    const int THREADCOUNT =4;
    int i;
    pthread_t threads[THREADCOUNT];

    for (i =0; i < THREADCOUNT; i++)
       if (pthread_create(&threads[i], 0, thr, (void *)&i) != 0)
           errx(-1, "cannot create thread");

    sleep(1);
    return 0;
}

** an example execution **

[root@vm7-1-64 ~/tmp]# ./threadcore 
Fatal error 'can not create signal daemon thread!
' at line 236 in file /usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_sig.c (errno = 22)

>How-To-Repeat:
Cut and paste the program in the description.  Compile it on a FreeBSD 6.3/32bit system and run the program on a FreeBSD 7.1 64 bit system.
